    I agree it'll be a waste of time if we may be moving to LXQt on
    14.10 cycle.

    Hence, does 14.04 has to remain LTS yet? I mean, should we drop the
    LTS idea for 14.04 once:
    - LXDE is dying;
    - we're missing devs and LTS would demand support together with the
    non-LTS releases.
    - LXQt seems to be not  ready for 14.04


I'm not sure it will be quite ready for 14.10 either (we have to change all the GTK applications to Qt version, it's quite a lot of work to test the integration of all of them). But with a 14.04 LTS, we can release a "not-so-stable-and-finished" 14.10 Qt version, because we still can advise people to keep 14.04. The goal also, is to focus on maintaining the LTS version, and development the Qt version until it's stable enough to completely switch to it. That should make the maintenance possible (1 version to maintain, 1 to develop).

Julien:

This approach makes good sense to me.  I agree, for what it's worth.
