Can XFCE4 Use Ubuntu-Like Indicators?
If anyone has used any of the latest *buntu's, then they would know about the indicators that are available. There is the unified volume control/media player sound indicator, a unified messaging menu with all of the messaging application alerts, etc. It's a bit hard to do describe... So, here are some screenshots from my grandparent's Ubuntu install:

There are a few other nice ones as well.
I am using XFCE4 as my desktop environment. I have never used Xubuntu, but I've seen videos/screenshots of this being used in Xubuntu. How can I get these indicators into my XFCE install? I currently only have XFCE installed (no GNOME, no KDE, etc.)

Re: Can XFCE4 Use Ubuntu-Like Indicators?
xfce4-indicator-plugin is available in AUR, which is the placeholder applet for indicators. indicator-sound-gtk2 and indicator-application-gtk2 are supported. The Messaging menu is no longer available, because upstream dropped support for GTK+ 2.
