| wxl | tsimonq2: didn't y ou make that script so that we could add all the packages? | 00:01 |

| tsimonq2 | wxl: OH THAT'S RIGHT :D | 00:02 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: learning how to publish UWN at the moment, a bit later, but could you add me as an admin to the packages team please? | 00:03 |

| drab | can anybody help me understand the switch to qt? I'm not really finding much in the way of understanding why the switch and what are the pros | 21:36 |
| drab | more importantly, I'm not clear if things will change in so far as larger deployments and pref settings | 21:37 |
| drab | openbox seems to still be there for one and so do a lot of the gtk stuff unless you manually go in and remove them, but I'm not really sure why you'd do that | 21:37 |
| drab | thanks for any comments | 21:38 |
| wxl | drab: this would be a question best asked at #lxde as it's the upstream that's making the change. | 21:38 |
| wxl | lxde will still be around, but most of the development is focused on lxqt | 21:39 |
| drab | ok. I'm planning on deploying lubuntu to a large non profit org and so making quite a bit of an investment int erms of configuring ti all up for them | 21:40 |
| drab | wuold hate to waste the effort | 21:40 |
| wxl | things will likely change come lxqt | 21:40 |
| drab | some themeing is alsor equired for example for lightdm and that's gtk, unclear if that's going to do or what | 21:40 |
| drab | mmmh, k | 21:40 |
| wxl | which will likely come 16.10 or 17.04 at the latest | 21:40 |
| drab | so it sounds like I'm best to figure out how to run it on 16.04 (seems you can already install it manually) and configure for that | 21:41 |
| drab | anyway, will ask in lxde, thank you | 21:41 |
| wxl | all of the packages to make it lxqt are not available quite yet | 21:42 |
| wxl | and the fate of many of the apps are uncertain | 21:42 |
| drab | urm | 21:43 |
| drab | I was hoping to at least give them 4yrs worth of logevity by getting on the next LTS | 21:43 |
