+Xfce 4.10 Pre 2 Review

+Four days ago on April 14, 2012, http://xfce.org[Xfce] 4.10 pre 2
+http://xfce.org/about/news/?post=1334361600[was released]. It's been a while
+since 4.8 was released, so let's see how it's going.
+
+I'll just start out with this summary. Overall I'm not super impressed
+with this release so far. Don't get me wrong, I'm very excited for the
+release and I completely support the Xfce guys. They're doing good work.
+My only real complaint for this release is simply the amount that came
+with it. There just doesn't seem to be that much new stuff. There were a
+lot of bug fixes and translation updates though and for the most most
+part, it's pretty stable.
+
+Now, with that out of the way, let's take a look at a few screenshots of some
+new stuff I found. Before we do that though, I'm using the Orta theme with the
+AwokenWhite icons. Additionally, my panel is set to alpha 0, so the fancy
+integration into my background is not a part of Xfce 4.10.
+
+Alright, now to screenshots
+
+____

+Here we've got just a view of the desktop. Nothing notably different here other
+than the top right where the you can see the blurred out text. That would be my
+username. We now have a user actions widget.
+____
+

+
+So here is the user actions button. There are more settings to add more stuff
+to this menu. I'm just using the default.
+____
+
+
+____
+image:files/01-xfce-settings.jpg[height=400,link="files/01-xfce-settings.jpg"]
+
+Here is the Settings window. The Xfce devs have added categorization to it now.
+You'll also notice at the bottom the "Settings Editor". That's kind of like
+Gnome's gconftool. It seems to have granular settings for Xfce. Most of them
+are just settings you can edit through the Settings dialog.
+____
+
+____
+image:files/03-xfce-window-resize-hot-edge.jpg[height=400,link="files/03-xfce-windows-resize-hot-edge.jpg"]
+
+And finally we have some functionality that I've been hoping for for some time
+now. Hot edges for resizing windows. Here I drug the terminal to the top and it
+auto resized to half of my screen. I drug the file manager to the bottom and it
+resized to half of the bottom of my screen. It also works on the left and right
+sides, but for that you have to set your workspace count to one unfortunately.
