xarchiver doesn't use Xfce libs, while squeeze is a fork() using Xfce
libs, so it's more integrated. Anyway it's not that important to have
it, xarchiver can be used to have a consistent desktop. I use squeeze.

I don't.

xfburn is a nice frontend for burning softwares. I don't burn that much,

Yeah, I don't really use it, and it's not really well maintained
upstream, so…

It's fixed in 1.0.0.

If people needs a notification-daemon and doesn't want gnome libs, this
is the right choice. I use it. Will ITP it.
