We tested it a few months ago, and decided to wait a little while more until
we roll it out.

Most of the test users weren't too happy with the new desktop environment.

Can't say as I blame them. Did you try giving them the MATE desktop instead?

I did, but didn't feel it was worth the extra hassle.
Besides, I was never able to make Mate sticky, i.e. after each logout C7 
reverted to the default DE for the user, whatever I did. Same thing with KDE. 
Go figure.
After several tests and failures, I just left it at that.

Maybe that bug(?) has been fixed by now.
