On this Idea I have considered (but haven't had the time) creating an "Alternate Desktop" DVD image, so the basic idea is shipping a 4.1 GB DVD but without KDE and Gnome and instead having all the other desktops (or as many as I can fit).
I also like this idea.
Problem: XFCE uses a lot of Gnome libs, so a part of it is needed at least. probably LXqt uses parts of KDE.
Yeah so the image will still have gtk and whatever other gnome libs that xfce and mate need, similarly it will have Qt (but probably not KDE Libs), most of the space saving likely comes from not shipping all the KDE apps and extended gnome apps, but i'll have to wait and see what size the first image comes out at. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
