The few spare time I have I deserve it to code my apps, Xarchiver and

Documentation Browser even though according to Jani Monoses Xubuntu
doesn't need it because of the default shipped Firefox...

A release is made up of many small/bug apps. There are people who
devoted their time to code them and others who care of the distro in
general. By the way what are you doing for Xubuntu Lionel?

replacing apps? Let's begin. Is there a need for bugs hunting let's
begin.
