| This should provide an overview of the issue/functionality/change proposed here. Focus here on what will actually be DONE, summarising that so that other people don't have to read the whole spec. See also CategorySpec for examples. | The specification is written to propose changing the default media player in Xubuntu. Our current music player is Python-based Exaile. It is said that Exaile is the GTK+ equivalent for Amarok, the KDE/Qt media player.

| This section should include a paragraph describing the end-user impact of this change. It is meant to be included in the release notes of the first release in which it is implemented. (Not all of these will actually be included in the release notes, at the release manager's discretion; but writing them is a useful exercise.) It is mandatory. |
