I take the opportunity to thank you both, PCman and Christoph Wickert
(from Fedora), and all the other people contributing to the LDXE
project.  You have changed my computer experience in an enjoyable
experience.

Quite recently (2 years) I have moved to Linux because I was seeking
for freedom (of choice and configuration), but I have never been happy
with the 2 main DE available.

My perception of a good DE is a light, functional, and non-intrusive
GUI from which I launch my applications and browse my documents
(because I can't manage a full CLI environment).

Since I am probably the least Linux knowledgeable on the lists.  The
Fedora LXDE Spin really helped me out using LXDE, gnome free.

Unfortunately, most of the applications I use (e.g. Shutter) install
their huge Gnome dependencies (Shutter even bring Nautilus along...),
but I won't do without them.  There is a French proverbs saying: "entre
deux maux il faut choisir le moindre" (Between two evils, choose the
least).

I hope you will keep maintaining, and developing this project.
