[Arm-netbook] Fwd: [trinity-devel] TDE Fundraiser

Forgive the one-time topposting, please; I'm on a phone for the moment and
phone Gmail, being different from webclient Gmail, is not friendly to my
customary post style.

I'm really not familiar with what Qt and GDK actually are, TBH. I believe
my understanding is correct that they are some sort of building-block type
systems (scripting languages, if I had to guess), such that WMs and DEs can
be made from Qt or GDK "parts"... but that's as far as I go.
