<p>Xfce is a free software desktop environment for Unix and
Unix-like platforms, such as FreeBSD. It aims to be fast and
lightweight, while still being visually appealing and easy to use.</p>
<p>During this quarter, the team has kept up-to-date the following
applications:</p>
<ul>
<li>misc/xfce4-weather-plugin 0.8.5</li>
<li>science/xfce4-equake-plugin 1.3.6</li>
<li>sysutils/xfce4-netload-plugin 1.2.4</li>
<li>sysutils/xfce4-systemload-plugin 1.1.2</li>
<li>www/midori 0.5.9</li>
<li>x11/xfce4-taskmanager 1.1.0</li>
<li>x11/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin 1.4.2</li>
<li>x11-wm/xfce4-desktop 4.10.3</li>
</ul>
<p>Two new ports have also been added (taken from our repository):</p>
<ul>
<li>deskutils/xfce4-volumed-pulse</li>
<li>x11/xfce4-dashboard</li>
</ul>
<p>Moreover, we are working on the next stable release, below list
of ports updated:</p>
<ul>
<li>sysutils/xfce4-power-manager 1.4.2</li>
<li>x11/xfce4-dashboard 0.3.4</li>
<li>x11-wm/xfce4-session 4.11.1</li>
</ul>
<p>We sent some patches to upstream.</p>
<ul>
<li>bug <a href="https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11104">#11104</a>, to keep 'wallpaper settings' in Ristretto with xfdesktop >= 4.11</li>
<li>bug <a href="https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11249">#11249</a>, add 'Hidden' option in desktop item editor (refused)</li>
<li>bug <a href="https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11413">#11413</a>, to use sysctl(3) and acpi_video(4) for backlight support</li>
</ul>
<p>A FAQ is being written <a href="https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1305">D1305</a>.</p>
