I’d encourage at least a few of us to hang on to the old stuff so that the old systems can continue to used for a while longer, but I am not opposed to parallel efforts in other directions.
Myself being an end user of current antiX, having put lots of time and attention to composition of a perfect antiX desktop, I will probably use my current antiX instances long after the official support is dropped, replaced by some other desktop. However I also think that in order to gain wider acceptance antiX needs more mainstream desktop to cater to typical users, so it works for them out of the box. I will gladly use it too if efficient, not heavy and particularly if it runs well as Live, which is not easy to accomplish.
The new antiX must be well thought out, as the old one was. It should not be a typical in Linux world stitch of a desktop environment on top, without good integration and optimization like a typical Linux distro in order to stand out of the crowd.
Just my two cents as an end user…
