Problem: I would like Debian to be accepted as a solution for corporate
desktop environments. For that to happen, either stable has to have a good
desktop, or the 'unofficial backports' become reasonably official pools of
packages to support stable. Or perhaps something else, but these are the two
methods that seem to make sense to me.
For techo user desktops (like yours and mine, probably), it's a different
story. But I would like to see Debian making bigger wins. :-)
