Hi Stuart,

> Is it possible to add LXDE also after XFCE?
Listing four environments would be overkill if you ask me. I've
followed the rule of threes:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(writing)

This is by no means objectively measurable, but to me it just feels
right to list three environments instead of two or four.

Here's what I'm suggesting: if there's reasonable proof that LXDE is
more popular and more active than Xfce, I'll replace the mention of
Xfce with LXDE. But I can't make everyone happy and keep the ad
relatively easy to read at the same time. (If there's a majority that
wants to see LXDE added, I'll change it of course.)

Regards,
Pieter
