Someone on another list once told me:
"As long as you can install the package from Debian unstable directly
on stable, which has always been the case, it's against the policy
of backports.org to accept an upload."
Any truth to that? It would explain why XFCE isn't there.
I don't know, I haven't heard about it before. Besides, it is a somewhat
moving target ;-) But it might be the case (I don't know if it is
possible to install XFCE from unstable on stable right now). But even if
it is, it might be a more long term solution to use backports, if the
package is available ofcourse.
