+mate-desktop-environment (continuation of GNOME 2)
+
+The MATE Desktop Environment provides an intuitive and attractive
+desktop environment using traditional metaphors for Linux and
+other Unix-like operating systems while preserving a traditional
+desktop experience.
+
+By installing the packages listed by REQUIRES, a MATE Desktop with
+similar user experience as with the xfce-install-set is obtained.
+
+To bring even more MATE flavour to your desktop, you might want
+to install additional packages from the MATE-project(provided by SBo):
+-atril (document viewer)
+-engrampa (file archiver)
+-mate-calc (graphical calculator)
+-mozo (menu editor using the freedesktop.org menu specification)
