Desktops: Where is LXDE? I think it is still maintained and has many users. Also, There are some exotic desktops like Zorin, Vera, Sugar, Hawaii etc. Maybe they don't get any vote but adding them will make this list more comprehensive.

LXDE has been superseded by LXQt, which is included. Peppermint has been added.
You might want to add the "Sunday Morning Linux Review" to "Linux/Open Source Podcast of the Year" http://smlr.us/
AFAIK the Gtk version of LXDE has not been superseded by LXQt and as I understand it that's not the intention, they are to be developed in tandem, in fact take a look at github and you'll see they are BOTH still receiving code submission .. or look here: https://blog.lxde.org/
to see there have been (Gtk) LXDE releases this month

If Geany is mentioned as an IDE, SciTE should probably be as well. I use it with several lua scripts and add-ins so that it has the same functionality as other IDEs.
What about Emilia Pinball, Jooleem and Tuxmath? Just made some modifications to Tuxmath so it will work with SDL 2.x if you're replacing your SDL 1.x applications with SDL 2.x applications. SDL 1.x compatibility still works for systems that don't use SDL 2.x.
