Well this is late ... many apologies to all.

Another global rebuild is due sometime in the next few hours (currently
21:54UTC)

The rebuild is due to some "global" issues surfacing. At the same time
it did give us an opportunity to land a couple of really late Thunar
patches, which help towards the copy/refresh issue that has been showing up.

What we need now isforpeople who can try for that last minute push – and
test any ISO that does turn up. New ISOs will be numbered (AT LEAST)
20160420.

Here's the fewspecific things that should be fixed on the new ISOs:

If time is an issue PLEASE choose option 3 ;)

Any smoketesting required shortly prior to release will be undertaken by
Xubuntu QA - as is normal.

1) "Install Xubuntu" should now always proceed with installing
(smoketesting the installer is enough)
This respin should fix the Try/Install fail (eg. choose Install and get
the live desktop - also affected choices from the first
(debian-installer)menu)

2)Swap creation fail issue is fixed from all affected installation methods

3)Less Thunar issues should appear (live boot or a fresh install from a
new ISO)
XUBUNTU-SPECIFIC ISSUE. Check renaming and moving files with Thunar –
crashes should be either happen less often or be gone. See the bug list
below to see bugs that this patch is supposed to fix.

Just tested 20160420.1, was able to reproduce 1512120 and 1311926, could
not reproduce 1514912 nor 1540186 but think I found another one:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1572792
In Xubuntu 14.04 default behaviour for drag&drop was move files,
dragging&dropping copies files instead of moving them, not sure if it's
correct.
