Hi, this might seem like a silly question, but are there any plans to
have a default music player in the spin? Had a quick look through the
pages and google and can't see any mention of one. If the default
desktop is not Gnome or KDE then I guess their players wont be
included.

Separately, is Pulse going to be on by default? If it is then the jack
pulse plugins would be a useful inclusion.
