LXer interviews Benedikt Meurer, a developer of the Xfce project. "One of [Xfce's] advantages over KDE and GNOME is the simplicity. You can still get to know the code base in less than a week and you are able to understand the basic design decisions. This way, Xfce 4.x has still a lot of potential, while the major desktop environments are in need for a rewrite (KDE already started the rewrite, a lot of GNOME contributors/maintainers are voting for a 3.0 rewrite)."

"If I remember right, doesn't Xfce4, at least in Xubuntu, even load Gnome libs automatically nowadays? "
That's good, I didn't know that. But in brasero's case for example, you have to install nautilus and nautilus-cd-burner to run brasero.
