This conversation reminded me again of TDE. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp uses TDE
with a purpified 'Plastic' theme that we worked on some months ago. You
can find it here https://git.devuan.org/samhain/TDE-theme and the TDE
source is here https://www.trinitydesktop.org/ There is more info in
this thread: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=539 I just wish
that those images were on purpy wallpaper instead of rocky! Maybe TDE
and Plastic theme could get packaged without too much difficulty? Would
be a great addition to Devuan.
