Don't forget, though, that we still need many of good Gnome's
software, such as GTK, and that Xfce4 uses a lot of Gnome components
such as icons and the gvfs super-filesystem-abstraction. What Devan
could drop is the Gnome desktop, which more and more heavily depends on
Systemd, but don't turn this into some anti-gnomism: it is just that it
becomes impossible to provide Gnome desktop without Systemd.
