That's good, thanks

Seriously? why don't contribute the the entire project? i guess that
sentences like this one are making you loose some users.. that's a
piece of an email i received recently from a former lubuntu user:

"I got fed up with that Ubuntu way of treading on everything and
looking only to its own interests that the Lubuntu developer started
to show after his distribution received support from Canonical"

and also

"I was referring to the way Julien Lavergne started uploading broken
code to the git repo and then just ignored the fixes."

I believed we were working on a common project that is LXDE, and them,
just customizing it to make it fit our distro specific needs.. but any
way, that's not the place for such an argument.

well, i actually tested it to check if there was any crash or issues,
but i didn't pay much attention on that. I can try to give it a deeper
look next time. What i actually saw, is that seems all gtk3
applications doesn't get a gtk3 theme, but maybe is just my
installation.
