LXDE is moving from GTK+ to Qt
Posted: 26 May 2013, 09:59
Looks like gtk3 because of its frequent updates and API changes is not very popular among programmers http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=lxde-list, so LXDE developers decided to switch to Qt, perhaps they will merge with razor-qt in the future. There are already some applications ported like pcmanfm-qt, lximage-qt, even obconf-qt program used for configuring openbox, that is also used in alphaos http://lxde.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb-index.cgi
