Re: [Trisquel-users] Appelbaum on hardware on debian

I noticed that PureOS is a rebranded Trisquel with the Cinnamon desktop. For  
the longest time, many have advocated the use of Cinnamon or MATE as a  
replacement to the current desktop or at least offer an alternative ISO for  
Trisquel 7.

I've been in the MATE camp lately since it can mimic the pre Gnome 3 Trisquel  
(4.0 and 4.5) which was simply gorgeous. With the Ubuntu MATE distro now  
official as of the 15.04 release, that means that the MATE packages will have  
full support from here on and Trisquel 8 and above will benefit.
