me, is that
some things need to be done to attract more attention, more users
and more developers. Since classical DE as XFCE can have a large
market share, I think that it is still possible to get more users,
possibly by ditching away the perception that it is the outdated
kde3.
Simply put: you are right.
Main problem: lack of resource/time from the small developer team,
i.e: the time available is spent on improving TDE code/features, not
on improving TDE perception.
Possible solution: TDE users can help to improve how TDE is perceived.
For example create and maintain a facebook TDE page could be a good
way to raise awareness, discuss new ideas an so on. Yes, we already
have the mailing list, but it does not really reach out to the same
amount of people. And surely there are also other ways...
That would be a nice way for any willing user to contribute to the
project :-)

recall the topic
being discussed, the agreement was to schedule point releases about
every three months. If that still holds then R14.1.0 would be
released in March. If I remember correctly, an R14.0.1 release
would be forthcoming only if there is a serious security issue or
major unforeseen breakage.
No, there is a plan to release a *maintenance* version
approximately
every 3 months, not a *minor* release, i.e. R14.0.x should have a
release cycle of more or less 3 months. Instead R14.x.0 minor releases
will be released "when ready", although we will strive to release once
a year if possible.
Please keep in mind that both the maintenance and minor release
intervals are indicative, i.e. there may be some changes depending on
how much development we are able to achieve over the time.
Cheers
