It will be Xfce4, since Mate is somehow too big.

Later on, we may still want to have a respin installer and/or liveCD
with Mate default and anyway Mate is simple to apt-get install.

However the default DE will be Xfce4 and we are also contributing to its
code in order to keep it away from systemd lockin (thanks Dima!)

Many VUAs love Xfce4 and its team is really a good example of talented
open source developers with good concerns about usability, compatibility
and resource consumption. we may want to backport a newer package
ourselves with a more actual 4.12 (volunteers welcome).
