IMO they have, in 0.4.1 audio decoding works fine. I'm using xfburn a lot and it works reliable.
I'd prefer xfburn, but brasero would be fine too. The general question is: Is it to late for such last minute changes? IMO we shouldn't make such a change that late, on the other hand it can't be worse than gnome-baker so it definitely is a improvement.
I would greatly prefer xfburn over others if for no other reason I think it would be nice to ship all (or atleast as many as we can) xfce centric applications available instead of using alternatives.
Too late to make changes? ... I honestly don't know for sure, if it is then life goes on but if not I'd love to get these changes in and get an image built asap.
I just added Midori to the image and built, the resulting iso is 688MB so we're well under the 700MB limit.

Yeah, it seems ok here. I don't burn media much, but from some simple testing it seems ok.

Yeah, I think if we do so asap it should be ok...

I would like to see Midori available as an alternate browser.

It is too late really to be switching defaults like this but if we are switching, I would really prefer Brasero as it is being included by default in the GNOME live cd and has been default in other distributions for a while and has received much more testing than the alternatives (except for k3b which we aren't going to include).
Media writing is such a common task but tricky to get right. Unless there is substantial testing done on it, I am opposed to the idea of switching to xfburn especially this late. I fully appreciate the sentiment behind using Xfce apps but the tools under goodies aren't necessarily mature and in the past has had serious issues.
I have no problems with including Midori as a alternative but we should generally avoid including more than one application for a particular task.

Yeah, it is late. Perhaps we should leave it as is now, and make changes/revisit things as soon as the f12 ks files are available.

True. It seems fine to me, but I don't burn lots of media.

There is a selinux issue with midori right now, so I think we should just add it as soon as we get f12 ks files available.
