How about we all just agree to ... heck, dem dudes piecing together dat 2010 is ahead of us

Sorry, that was uncalled for. As tschommer and parnote had already mentioned, it is known among long-time PCLOS users that all the derivatives - GNOME, LXDE, XFCE, ZenMini, E17 (?) and what else would follow soon after the official release. It would also be a good time to state that PCLinuxOS is officially a KDE Linux distro and all the other DEs are derviatives ... sanctioned remasters by prominent community members such as slick50, Sproggy, Neal, Linuxera, etc.
