Cool, glad to hear that someone out there is using it. I still don't think that they get enough love though. They're getting popular in a few small communities (arch, and reddit, and that's about it). To lkcl's original quote "[TDE] is strategically quite important as it's one of the remaining comprehensive desktop environments that is also light-weight and relevant.", i3 and xmonad are more lightweight, and are more relevant to the sort of culture to which this mailing list is centered around.
