[Lubuntu-qa] LXQt session at Ubuntu Online Session Thursday

[Walter Lapchynski]

LXQt is still relatively early in development. Things will improve.

However, the future of LXDE on any distro doesn't look good. Upstream
development has transitioned almost entirely to LXQt.

Patches welcome and all, though. :)
