The Foresight Xfce Edition features the Xfce desktop environment, maintained by Xfce project developers, as the interface for Foresight Linux. Xfce aims to be fast and lightweight while still being visually appealing and easy to use. Embodying the traditional UNIX philosophy of modularity and reusability, Xfce consists of a number of components with dedicated developer teams that together provide the full functionality of the desktop environment. By packaging these components separately, Xfce allows users to select from available packages to create their best personal working environment.

The Foresight Xfce Edition is currently under active development, and it is available for installation as an alpha release. An alpha release is not recommended or intended for everyday use, especially by those unfamiliar with troubleshooting Linux. Foresight invites users to test the Xfce edition and file bugs or other issues whose resultions will help move it toward a stable release.

The Foresight XFCE Alpha 1 was released on April 22nd, 2008. Read the release notes.
