Who is hostile to anything other than TDE??  As one of the "hostile" people, I 
am not hostile to anything other than TDE.  I _am_ hostile to destroying the 
essence of TDE.  I have also been convinced during this discussion that TDE 
can't be allowed to fragment to the extent that there are umpteen different 
DEs, all called TDE.  Alexandre's version may well be exactly what some 
people want.  I would not deny that.  But it may still not actually be TDE.

TDE is what it is because some highly competent people wanted to continue 
using KDE3 and did not want to use KDE4.  TDE with parts of KDE4 is not TDE 
as originally conceived.
