[Hamara-devel] Fwd: Re: update on lxde accessibility

[Krishnakant]

Dear Hamara Hackers.
Your's truely and Vik have been having a discussion on a low memory 
alternative and which is also accessible and easy to grasp.
I suggested Mate and he wished as you see in the forwarded email that we 
discuss it on the mailing list.
I urge all of you to base your views on realistic grounds and not on 
probable extra eferts which may be needed or personal favorites.
Read the discussion below and we can discuss further.
happy hacking.
Krishnakant.

I think we should put it to the community and have an lxde vs mate
discussion.

I would be happy to drop lxde if mate can work on the raspberry pi and
other SBC's.
