KDE v3.x was my de jour until it went away. I remember with particular
fondness the compatability with Compiz and transparent panels that
could slide away completely out of view. I couldn't do the later in
GNOME, there was always at least a bar of 1 pixel's thickness on the
edge. Maybe I never dug deeply enough to know :(

Used GNOME until v3 was being pushed around. I know Gentoo hasn't
pushed it yet, but I'd been using Arch when it happened, and it
completely foobar'd my work set up. I quit Arch and GNOME on the same
day. Gentoo + Fluxbox as well, here. =)

I'm building a cross compiler factory from various sources to support
my Yeeloong 8101_B. I have some Raspberry Pi coming, so x86, x86_64,
and ARM support are going to be included at some point, too.

Although desktop environments are going to be part of a separate
related project, I'm looking at MATE and Trinity to be the forerunners
there, too.

Until then, maybe this will help Gentooians ;)
