Small changes between 4.8 and 4.10? I hink, you have read the whole page :)
One of the biggest was adding preview and multi drag and drop files on 
the desktop for me of course. And others small changes, from which Xfce 
is far more usable :)

> Why would you need to install every 6 months?  XFCE is unlike some desktops in that the changes are relatively small.  What is it about 4.08 that is so deficient that one would need to upgrade?
