Polish, polish, polish and integration. Most of the Fedora & Ubuntu &
yourfavepopdistro tester community is pounding on Gnome and its
integrated tools.

Call it evil network effects if you want, but the end result is that
if you are going to roll out LXDE to a few million users, it has to be
polished.

If you take the sample configs in olps-os-builder and add a
Sugar+LXDE, you'll be making an initial step down that road...
