Frankly speaking I think this is not subject to discussion. KDE needs to remain a release blocking desktop. Improving our workstation product should not happen at the cost of KDE or any other desktop. > PLEASE NOTE: I believe the WG would really like to see KDE be a > release blocking alternative DE under the premise that we can work > together with the KDE team and get consensus on the technical aspects > of what Workstation should provide.

We will vote on alternative DEs at a later time. For me, it's not so much about this or that desktop but about cross-desktop interoperability, e.g. through sane packaging standards that allow installing several desktops side by side without having them interfere. This was my original motivation to become a member of this WG and I am looking forward to the discussion.
