Hi,
just a few thoughts about the packages recently debianized by Corsac
(nice work) :).

Do you think the names are reasonable?
xfmedia is ok for me, but xterminal and mousepad are not. See the
various threads about GNUStep applications names on debian-devel to
understand why we should avoid generic names.

The WNPP bug for terminal already calls the package xfce-terminal, so
we've got to rename it in subversion.

And what about xfce-mousepad (or xfmousepad) for mousepad?

Corsac, I cannot find the upstream tarball for mousepad, would you mind
adding it to scripts/goodies-sources.txt?

It is also necessary to file the relevant ITP bugs to the bug tracking
system for exo and mousepad.

Thanks.
ciao,
