Portland Project reached 1.0!

The Open Source Development Labs and freedesktop.org announced the 1.0 release of the Portland common desktop interfaces today, less than a year after work started on the project. Portland was conceived last year at the first Desktop Architects Meeting in Portland, Ore., as a way of making it easier for ISVs to write applications for Linux.

As I see there's no xdg-utils package for Arch Linux yet. But the main concern is - how many apps will make use of it?
