Roadmap for Precise Pangolin

Changes on default applications

Items in this group (usually) need comprehensive application comparisons. An assignee for each "group"/type of application should take up the task, ideally more than one to make it less subjective/one-sided. All proposed applications can be found in Xubuntu/Roadmap/ProposedApplications; please add one here only if that group/application has an assignee.

See existing rows for example.

Application group	Proposed (Current)	Assignee	Importance	Links
Media Player (Audio)	Any (gmusicbrowser)	GridCube	Low *	Blueprint, Specification

New features

Note that any features with no assignee will not be driven, and most probably won't make it to the Precise Pangolin release.
