From a maintenance point I would be tempted to have just one PREEMPT-RT ISO and 
one RTAI ISO.

I would prefer Mate over XFCE from an ease of use point and I think most user 
nowdays would be using machines plenty capable of running Mate plus it is not 
really too difficult for a user to change desktops.

I would be willing to run a slave or two if we go in that direction.
