Detailed Description
LXQt is a lightweight Qt-based desktop environment. Fedora provides it since Fedora 22 as a group of packages. Now that LXQt is much more complete, it is time to provide a live spin to our users. Therefore some effort has been made to provide a first impression and it is ready for submission as an official spin.
Benefit to Fedora
Fedora provides one more option to its users and also catches up to some other distributions like Manjaro already providing LXQt versions of their distributions. The LXQt SIG got several requests for a spin.
