I have noticed there are a number of Xfce bugs and regular updates required. It appears to be a relatively high burden to keep Xfce up-to-date and functional on FreeBSD. The more hands, the better. https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-xfce/2017-July/001852.html I would like to offer to help, with the spare time I have (which isn't a huge amount unfortunately). If you will have me, could someone please explain the development process used by the team, and the policy / approval process for updating and fixing ports?
