Hi Christophe,<br><br>While I'd like to investigate Xfburn over Brasero (but this takes time to test the apps, make sure they work, etc, and my CD drive kind of died), I don't think wicd can replace networkmanager, for a very simple reason: it's GUI is really, really not intuitive and easy to use. I haven't tested MPlayer for quite some time, but I remember I clearly preferred Totem's GUI over the alternatives' ones, because it was just simple and doing it's job for most basic uses. I may one day recommend Parole over Totem, when I think it came to feature parity, but I don't think MPlayer or VLC would be any better for end users.<br clear="all">

VLC uses the Qt toolkit since version one, which means it would be more suitable for e.g. Kubuntu, but not Xubuntu. And I also believe it had the same issue as Mplayer's.<br>
<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><font color="#888888">Vincent</font><br></blockquote></div><br>On Wednesday I updated the Development Roadmap [1] on the Xubuntu wiki. I note this here because one of the ongoing tasks is to review the packages that are included in Xubuntu. I've modified the road map categories a little bit, and as of now the categories include:<br>
<br>- New objectives for the current release cycle (Lucid)<br>- Objectives carried over from prior release cycles<br>- Ongoing objectives<br>- Completed objectives.<br><br>I listed "Refresh Xubuntu Artwork," as a completed objective even though it's really an ongoing task. Perhaps we can establish that as an ongoing objective and the relabel the previous objective to "Refresh Xubuntu Artwork - Karmic." <br>
