Dear Xfce community, I am happy to announce the release of Xfce4.20 pre2.
This platform pre-release consists of the Xfce core components and will be followed by the final Xfce4.20 release soon. We fixed some quirks which were found in Xfce4.20 pre1, did some further polishing and the result is now released as Xfce4.20 pre2.
Early adopters are invited to give it a try and check for compatibility before the final release, which is planned for 15. December.
Xfce4.20 pre2 includes all Xfce core components. The tarballs for building it can be found here:
Though, you might prefer to wait for distribution specific development packages.
It is a pleasure for me to present you the outcome of our Xfce4.20 wallpaper contest, which received numerous nice wallpaper submissions.
This year we received 54 submissions in total, contributed by 18 different users.
Since two wallpapers were tied for the third place, four new wallpapers will be shipped with Xfce-4.20.
The winner wallpaper, which will be the new Xfce4.20 default wallpaper, was brought to you by “kaz sb”:
The second place, authored by Denys DEKUVE:
The third place, authored by Farhang Bakhshi:
And another third place, authored by Rose Pierce:

A detailed sum up of all new features in Xfce4.20 is planned for the final release, so stay tuned!
Best regards,
The Xfce development team
