Now that I have read more on the issue I feel that Dapper shouldn't be
touched until Xfce4.4 is released as stable and once it is, compile a
version for dapper and one for edgy, package them and place them in their
respective repositories because that way neither is still running a Beta/RC.
I understand "don't fix what isn't broken", but I think that applies to
finished projects and while Xfce4.4 is usable in its current state I am
certain it will be rock solid once their dev team releases it as stable.
Just a thought.
