Re: Lubuntu could end up like Xubuntu (Heavy & Slow)

 

Related to this question is what to do with what is currently the
separate lxde blueprint in Launchpad:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/mobile-karmic-lxde-ubuntu-desktop

I would be happy to see about transferring it to the Lubuntu Team if the
Lubuntu team does wish to formally take it over...

In any case, yes, I also think the key is finding the right reasonable
mix.
