<p>Hi Team,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>@pasi: You are 100% correct.</p>
<p>@Rest: Please read architecture and design of XFCE and Xubuntu.
We want it lightweight.</p>

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Hello Joel,<br>
<br>
"Parole never works" is not very good argumenting. What in
it does not work?<br>
<br>
VLC uses Qt as its toolkit so including it as the default
player would bring in a lot of extra dependencies
(literally, another toolkit), so it's out of question. <br>
<br>
Additionally, Parole works for all of my purposes very
well, for example. Again, we would need good argumentation
and facts on where Parole fails for a majority of our
users to even consider a switch to begin with. That said,
I'm happy that you've found an alternative that works for
you.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
