(especially those who don't use debian packagemanagement) I have nothing against making LSC 'portable' by using packagekit instead of aptdaemon (or what it uses now). But this is a long work in progress. And for this, we should at first ask the other LXDE Distros if they want to work on it and actually use it when its ready.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Rename LSC?
Hello Glenn, I think that would be easier if Lubuntu is not yet an official variant of Ubuntu. Now, it's an official variant, I think (NOT sure) we need to be as close as possible to Canonical's Approaches and style but perhaps I'm wrong :) IMHO, what could be much better is having our own applications. I mean, LXDE Applications. Instead of using GNOME or XFCE Power Management, we develop our own application. Instead of using GNOME-Player, we create our own, etc. As for other developers from other projects, I'm not that sure they will involve themselves. As far as I know, everyone is busy with his/her own project. I'm trying to find some free time to come up with new ideas for LXDE but not at the moment, I'm busy with too many things.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Rename LSC?
Something to keep in mind is that it's not just Lubuntu, it's LXDE - so anything that happens needs to also get approved at that level (for some things at least, not sure about all of them).

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Rename LSC?
A more ambiguous name will make it more adaptable for others. Something like Lightweight Software Center is indicative of it's nature without tying it unnecessarily to Lubuntu or LXDE for that matter. But that is just my 2c.
