    <p>
      <p><a href="http://lxqt.org/">LXQt</a> is the Qt port and the upcoming version of LXDE, the Lightweight Desktop Environment. It is the product of the merge between the LXDE-Qt and the Razor-qt projects.</p>
      
      <p>Heavily work in progress, it needs some components of Plasma 5 (the new major KDE's workspace).</p>
      
      <p>Currently only the 0.10 branch is functional. See our wiki page for complete list of applications.</p>
      
      <p>We also sent updates for some components of LXDE (required for the LXQt desktop):</p>
      <ul>
      <li>x11/menu-cache 1.0.1</li>
      <li>x11/lxmenu-data 0.1.4</li>
      </ul>
      
      <p>Binary packages are available (only for test purpose) regularly tested with the KDE development repository.</p>
