I agree to that point of view. IMHO MATE is a waste of time and
manpower like Trinity as well. There no real need for those desktops
because Gnome 3 refugees could also use Lxde or Xfce which already
feel like Gnome 2 wich some customization work.

BTW: As far as I know there still some Unix distributions which ship
KDE 3.5 but they ship AFAIK the original KDE bits and not trinity.
