Hi,

Yeah, to xubuntu-dev and pkg-xfce-devel, because most maintainers are
not subscribed to both MLs.

For Debian, I'd say there are too many changes (even after filtering
autofoo files) to include it in squeeze at this time, and the release
team won't accept:

 54 files changed, 6682 insertions(+), 2738 deletions(-)

I can't speak for everyone though, so maybe another team member thinks
it would be ok?


For Xubuntu maverick, it's out of the question, simply because the
release date is set for next sunday. ;-)

Regards,
Lionel
