Dear LXDE Developers,

I've been running LXDE on the desktop for years (via a Lubuntu distribution) 
and I'm happy with it.

I want to build a separate home server box and put a lightweight, reasonably 
secure desktop manager on it.

(I know it's a best practice to not put any desktop manager on a server box for 
maximum security, but I prefer a little more GUI help than just the shell.)

So in the aspect of security, I was comparing LXDE with XFCE.

I see that the XFCE has used the Coverity static code analysis tools to check 
that they don't have any suspect code - according to Coverity.

  https://scan.coverity.com/projects/xfwm4
  https://scan.coverity.com/projects/xfce4-session

Why doesn't the LXDE team also take advantage of Coverity to make sure it's as 
securely-programmed as possible?

Thanks.
