By the way, Michael, I believe that AntiX is based on MX Linux. I forget the 
exact relationship, but that's how I discovered the MX repositories. 

Since you are so enthusiastic about MX Linux with TDE, I wondered if you knew 
anything about AntiX, or were more up-to-date on its status, or had an 
opinion about it

I was quite impressed by it; it just didn't suit my needs.
