Hello everybody.
I just want to inform you that PC-BSD (desktop version of FreeBSD) is in
progress of making new desktop environment called
Lumina<http://blog.pcbsd.org/2014/04/weekly-feature-digest-26-the-lumina-project-and-preload/>.
For information that I got Lumina is a lightweight, qt-based, stable,
fast-running desktop environment. My conclusion is Lumina share same goal
as LXQT desktop. When I ask them about possibility to collaborate with LXQT
project, they answer that it wasn't possible for following reason:
1. LXQT is based on OpenBox, while Lumina is based on Fluxbox.
2. LXQT is GPL licensed, while Lumina is BSD licensed.
3. LXQT is Linux-specific, while Lumina is targeting FreeBSD (although
it would probably only take a few minor changes to make it work on Linux
too). The Razor-QT project (which LXDE has merged with) has been
notoriously Linux-centric, such that it could not even be ported over to
FreeBSD, so I don't get my hopes up that anything they produce will work on
FreeBSD.
As an user who love both project, please find a way (maybe can be started
by doing some initial discussion) for making collaboration between LXQT and
PC-BSD's Lumina possible.
