Debian's future is not in doubt.
I find it sad that things like this are being spread.

Just note, this is Debian "testing".. things are likely to be broken. I
don't know and can't predict what.
The future of Debian itself is in doubt (systemd fiasco, which affects
all
other distros)
At the moment, TDE is gaining ground as just about the only
fully-functional
DE out there for those of us who do not wish to
run systemd. The only
other
alternative seems to be openbox (a WM rather than
a DE).
Here, a recompiled dbus has removed all systemd dependencies (although I
dont use the full TDE "meta"). I just got back "suspend" in TDE
logout
thanks to consolekit2.
I really don't have a clue about skype.
From reading various reports on systemd, I like the idea of a DE that
doesn't use it. Given the uncertainty about Debian, I might go to
using Gentoo, or look into the feasibility of using TDE in one of the
BSDs.
