Some of the highlights of the 10.04 release include:

 * Xubuntu now uses PulseAudio to provide an improved audio experience.
 * Settings menu has been tidied to make it easier to configure your Xubuntu desktop.
 * The "Ubuntu Software Center" introduced in Ubuntu 9.10 replaces the "Add/Remove ..." option provided in earlier Xubuntu versions.
 * Xsane has been replaced in favor of SimpleScan to ease setup and operation of scanners.
 * Gnumeric has been updated to version 1.10.1, resolving most of the issues seen in earlier Xubuntu versions.
 * For game enthusiasts, Xubuntu comes with a revamped selection of games including classics such as Mahjongg, Sudoku and Solitaire.
 * Due to incompatible changes in gnome-screensaver, xscreensaver is now the default screen saver.
 * Prefer the classic Xfce desktop defaults? Xubuntu now offers users the choice to select between a classic Xfce session and a Xubuntu session.
 * Xubuntu's theme, Albatross, has been updated to the latest version from the Shimmer team.

= Bugs =

 * There is a critical bug in Abiword that causes a freeze for most users when anything under the Help menu is selected. This does cause you to lose the document you are working on. ([[https://launchpad.net/bugs/519541|519541]])
 * The Xubuntu documentation still advertises the 9.10 version.
