Initially I think we just need as many components as possible to be able

non-GNOME Linux desktop distros and see if we can produce a full desktop 
environment task with what we have.
I see Snowlinux is Debian stable + Cinnamon + Gnome apps. But is Debian stable and Gnome apps from wheezy seem more DE-agnostic than the new Gnome apps, because the new Gnome apps have that menu what depends on Gnome Shell and without Gnome Shell, that menu is weird. But I don't know, that is what I think, I like Gnome apps but I need more opinions... 


There's a mate-desktop package by Mike Gabriel in the NEW queue.  I'm
not sure if a copy of it is available yet to download from somewhere,
but we probably want to ensure things like this will build on GNU/kFreeBSD.
Yeah, if you think more appropriate Mate than Cinnamon or Gnome, I will port it. :) 


Unrelated, there's also a new gambas3 package in the NEW queue which
hopefully gets it building on GNU/kFreeBSD.  A GUI programming language
+ IDE which looks nice.
Well, Eclipse has some problems on kFreeBSD...for example I can't include Pydev, but I'm happy Eclipse is finally in kFreeBSD.
