1. Debian packaging of xfce4

This is probably really dull for anyone except SimonHuggins and to an extent DanielSilverstone.

2. Build Order

xfce4 build order with build-depends:

gtk2-engines-xfce - only gtk

Currently we're building 4.0.6 everywhere and tracking its progress here. Bear with us.

libxfce4util
- libxfcegui4
- libxfce4mcs
  - xfce-mcs-manager
    - xfce-mcs-plugins
    - xfce4-iconbox
    - xfce4-utils
    - xfdesktop4 -- ready to upload
    - xffm4
    - xfprint4 -- ready to upload
    - xfwm4 -- ready to upload
    - xfcalendar -- ready to upload
    - xfce4-panel

      - xfce4-themes -- ready to upload
      - xfce4-toys -- ready to upload
      - xfce4-trigger-launcher -- ready to upload

Because buildds are broken and don't check build-depends and do dep-wait stuff automagically the plan to get this into unstable is to upload in 5 stages (yes, 5 *sigh*) with the stuff in bold with urgency=high.

Need to release 4.0.6

Need to fix:

Sort out -session.
- Backport the --disable-tcp code from CVS HEAD
- Backport the fix to start the Desktop/Autostart stuff even when there is no saved session from CVS HEAD

Never ending task:

general triage

4. Misc

4.1. xfce4-goodies

These are xfce4-artwork xfce4-battery-plugin xfce4-clipman-plugin xfce4-datetime-plugin xfce4-diskperf-plugin xfce4-minicmd-plugin xfce4-netload-plugin xfce4-notes-plugin xfce4-showdesktop-plugin xfce4-systemload-plugin

Mail sent to Rudy Godoy and the bugs asking about these. No movement since April.

Rudy claims to be looking at these Rudy's made packages but we need to get these uploaded. I'll start my delicate persuasion again I think :)
