Xfce 4.10 Desktop Feature Release

Now, anyone know where I actually should be posting this as to make a difference?

Try their bugzilla:

It needs a proper volume knob like the one in Gnome and LXDE.

What's wrong with the xfce-mixer applet?

It is clunky and does not function like the two I mentioned above. I admit, completely personal taste here, but I just do not find how it operates to be acceptable. This is why I have the Gnome Fallback items in my task bar, so I can use it's volume control.

EDIT: I have just found out about pnmixer, which is kind of nice. Add that one to the list with Gigolo and Catfish

If it's actually Xfce’s attitude towards communication that users/packagers need to hunt for bugfixed components themselves, it is no surprise that Xfce only has three developers. The sense of progress also attracts new contributors.

Haha, well sorry about that. But releases are announced in a number of places (the users and announcement mailing lists and identi.ca), but I agree, better announcements on the website is an area where we can improve. Will put it on my todo list.
