Fedora 15 sees the introduction of Xfce 4.8. This new release remains true to Xfce's goal of providing a fast, lightweight yet user-friendly desktop environment, while adding a range of new features and incremental improvements:
 
* '''Remote share browsing''': Thunar, Xfce's file manager, now has support for GVFS, allowing easy remote access to files and folders on Windows shares and FTP, Webdav and SSH servers;
* '''New Xfce Panel''' with improved positioning and size handling, alpha transparency, a new item editor and drag'n'drop launcher creation;
* '''New Panel plugins''' such as '''window buttons''', which merges the features of the icon box and the tasklist into a single configurable plugin, and '''directory menu''', allowing quick browsing of a folder's tree structure;
* '''Easy application menu editing''' with any Freedesktop-compliant menu editor, such as Alacarte;
* '''Improved multihead display configuration''' including a quick setup dialog;
* '''Improved keyboard layout selection''' - wave goodbye to cryptic langauge/variant codes, and select the keyboard layout for your language in your language!
* And, in the venerable tradition of Xfce releases, a new clock mode - '''fuzzy clock mode!'''
