Is there actually anybody, who used this repository to install Xfce 4.8~pre3? (:
I've used your packages , and they where working flawlessly! :)

i also made i386 packages from your repo , so if there's anybody interested you can grab them here:

EDIT:
Packages are made against Squeeze libs , with the only exception libglib from experimental


Yesterday i've made packages of released 4.8 core , but i'm having some trouble making goodies packages (obviously not all goodies on the xfce site are up to date , as are debianizations on debian xfce group)

But you shouldn't use it, according to

Looks like we might be just weeks away from seeing Xfce 4.8 in Unstable:

I'm not sure if I'll install the unstable version if they think it has a good chance of breaking my system. I don't think I use a lot of Xfce plugins, if any. I still need to subscribe my Xfce computer to that blog.
