I've reconsidered a bit. lubuntu-core is great to base on, but we would at least need to add networking, and a few other things. We could also, as pointed out, just go with a smaller version of our XFCE setup - that would save us some energy, since we already know Xubuntu/XFCE better than

At this point, to make things really simple, I propose that we create install options for other DEs, but without specific *-default-settings for those. Once we have that working, we can decide if we want to add our own session, which at this point would mostly be about displaying our artwork

[ubuntu-studio-devel] DEs and how they relate to media production use

And some personal feelings as well. In the past I have tried lubuntu, xubuntu and KDE as they relate to use with the studio metas. I tried unity and gnome shell, but was not able to evaluate them well as they seemed to require more than my system had to offer. They seemed exclusive to those

I have found that for video editing and news audio use nothing seems to beat the basic Win95 taskbar concept extended by multiple workspaces. GNOME2, MATE, Cinnamon LXDE, XFCE, and even IceWM all support this concept and thus are essentially used the same way once set up. Honestly,

Personally, having used Gnome3 ever since it was released, I have no use whatsoever for a traditional DE. The main upsides with Gnome3 for me are two things: 1.speed 2.simplicity. Also, the menu is not central for Ubuntu Studio. It's only needed for DEs that have menus, as those menus otherwise
