Detailed Description
Fedora 8 and Fedora 9 already had Xfce spins. Fedora 10 is just a continuation of the process.
Benefit to Fedora
Xfce fans and developers will get a easy to use live cd with Xfce as the default desktop environment and a set of complimentary applications that match and fit into the desktop environment well.
Scope
Upstream was planning on a major new release but the current schedule doesn't seem to be a achievable target. So we are unlikely to get any major changes before minor tweaks with the default set of applications. Details will follow.
Test Plan
Release alpha and beta releases in sync with Fedora 10 Run the Xfce spin through the QA team basic set of tests on i386 and x86_64 platforms Work with Fedora QA to ensure that we have sufficient coverage
User Experience
Xfce users will get a more integrated look and feel that matches the one in GNOME.
Dependencies
None. Packages that we need are already in the repository
Contingency Plan
- Don't include a spin
Documentation
- We will provide those after reaching consensus on the default set of applications
Release Notes
