Hi Didier,

With a fairly minimal existing xfce install and using:

apt-get --no-istall-recommends etc lumina-desktop --> additional 102 MB
apt-get etc lumina-desktop --> additional 152 MB

Compared with some other DE's I think this is not too bad.

It is still under heavy development and is unfortunately not yet ready
for prime time, but it is on my watchlist. I must admit, I did like
what I saw.
