In addition to implementing the features and/or improvements set in the roadmap, there are a number of tasks which will occur during each release cycle:
Xubuntu packages will be synced or merged with Debian as appropriate
Bugs reported by users will be reviewed, fixed, and/or passed upstream
Attempt to reduce our delta by pushing appropriate patches upstream
Evaluate the seeds to ensure we are shipping the optimal software
Work on improving and updating the Xubuntu documentation and artwork
