The ISO images are ready for testing for Alpha4 release candidate.
There is a problem with the Applications Menu due to including Xfce
4.6. When the menu disappears, just right-click the panel, left-click
"Add new items...", left-click "Xfce Menu", left-click 'Add'. This adds
the menu back, named Xfce Menu. Continue testing.
Thanks for helping improve Xubuntu.
