Mate the future of the linux desktop?

Quote from this month’s linux voice:

And what desktop are you using at
the moment?
That would be Unity. It has its faults,
and I really should get round to
switching to Mate, which has become the
future of the Linux desktop by sticking with
and refining all the things that were good
about desktops in the past – namely, it’s
simple to use and looks good.

I have read the article. And yes,it’s right. Mate is what a desktop need to be. I don’t have big problems with unity or gnome, but make it’s more simple to use and perfect for desktop use. I believe the project needs more developer to accelerate it’s evolution end in less time that we can think mate can become THE DESKTOP of GNU/Linux system.
