Xfce XPde 0.3.5 has been released, which according to the site is a major upgrade to the XPde desktop environment and window manager. We reported on the (Pascal-written) XPde before (shots). On other X11 news, InterfaceWM 0.2.4 was recently released, XFCE 4 is getting closer to release (screenshots and one more), while the XWin.org team had another conference call last week.

XFce is starting to look really great

I used to run XFce back when I used FreeBSD as my dev system. Being used to BeOS I wanted a desktop environment that embraced the KISS principle. And I have to say that I was farily happy with it, but I always thought it was a bit amatureish and unpolished (not to say ugly). But it looks like it's shaping up really well now. If it's as good as it looks, I'd say that KDE and Gnome has some serious "competition" here.

Looking forward to trying it in a not to distant future ;)
