Hi,

At the previous meeting we spoke of xfce4-places-plugin, but iirc, we
didn't come to a conclusion. I think many people may be interested in
it, it could be a good candidate for main inclusion.

xfce4-places-plugin is the equivalent to Gnome places menu (I am not
sure of the name, I don't use Gnome ^_^). Gauvain packaged it some times
ago, I just updated the package with a new upstream release.

As the Gnome menu, it contains the following entries :
- home folder
- desktop
- trash
- file system
- recent accessed files.

Its look can be a bit customized (via right-click>properties, as other
xfce4-panel plugins):
- label only:

- icon only: http://people.dunnewind.net/mrpouit/xubuntu-gutsy/icon-only.png
- icon+label:
http://people.dunnewind.net/mrpouit/xubuntu-gutsy/icon%2blabel.png

And it's of course already localized in many languages (mk, et, dz, uk,
pa, zh_TW, gl, sq, el, fi, be, de, fr, hu, zh_CN, sv, it, nl, eo, pl,
pt_BR, ru, lt, ca, en_GB, tr, eu, ro, he, cs, ar, ko, ka, ja and es to
be precise :P)

What do you think of shipping it by default in xubuntu? If yes, which
appearance (label/icon/both)? Or is it too similar to Gnome?

Cheers,
Lionel
