Yep the ebuild is clean and well written; I shall put that one in my
EAPI-6 reference folder....

I looked at some of the code (https://github.com/trueos/lumina), 
impressive, clean and well organized. I do like what I've seen on quick,
first glance.


I did a quick search and did not find a comparison of lumina to lxqt. 
I'd like to see a feature comparison to lxqt; gotta ref on the 
comparison? I'm interested but cannot commit to a timeline for some test 
deployments. For sure this DE is aimed at security and flexibility
and I do like that.

thx Tom,
