This page is used by the Xubuntu Team to track ideas about what should be done for the [:IntrepidIbex:Intrepid Ibex] release. Anyone is free to add their own suggestions, but try to keep them short. Exposing and discussing the technical implementation of an idea should not be done here, but in a separate wiki page created for this feature and tracked in launchpad. You can more information about this process on the [:FeatureSpecifications:Feature Specifications] wiki page.

Keep ideas to a short sentence and somehow categorized.

So what do you think should be done for the [:IntrepidIbex:Intrepid Ibex]?
