Having an easy to try & easy to use live DVD with TDE pre-installed as the
default DE is very different from the kind of tinkering that we've been
doing so far, where we install the OS 1st, then add TDE. I'm talking about
something newbie-friendly like a Mint live & installable DVD with TDE
pre-installed as the default DE.

If someone where to create & release a live
DVD of Linux Mint with Trinity
DE, that would be awesome! Also, that's the kind of move that it's going to
take to get a large group of people to use Trinity DE.

I did this afternoon a chroot base (debootstrap) "install" of
wheezy and proceeded to install Trinity to it. Rather than the
"official" method (which uses metapackages, e.g. kde-trinity) I
used a custom list of TDE applications for a "light" TDE.
My list is posted here:
http://paste.debian.net/131358/
I could convert this to a "real" install later, but for now I want
to see what dependency issues there might be.
I identified the following, all of which are deprecated in Wheezy
but available (and installable) from Squeeze :
libavahi-qt3-1
libsensors3
libmtp8
libpoppler-qt2
libpoppler5
There may be others in a more full TDE setup. So far it seems that
enabling Squeeze repos in Wheezy still allows TDE to install
without errors.
Hope this helps anyone wanting to try Testing, maybe even LMDE or Sid
have had TDE installed on sid for a long time now aslong as you add the
required
repos from squeeze you wont have problems and it wont affect the
stability of your system by haveing older debian repos in your list (it
always favours your default (or most up to date depending on settings) repo
unless a specific version is needed)
