Re: [PLUG] CDE - common desktop env

Xfce was initially intended as a modern successor to CDE:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xfce

"Olivier Fourdan started the project in late 1996 as a Linux version of the Common Desktop Environment (CDE),[6][7] a Unix desktop environment that was initially proprietary and later released as free software.[8] The first release of Xfce was in early 1997.[9][10][11] However, over time, Xfce diverged from CDE and now stands on its own."

In addition, the window manager Window Maker was intended to emulate the NeXTSTEP GUI:
