Great rename, Dux/Tux, keeping the "d" at the start..

Plus, in school the dux is the person who came top of the class.

It's been turning into a very complete desktop env for a while now, surprising it doesn't get talked about more. Glad to see it get exposure on HN.

Here in Italy the first thing it makes you think of is Mussolini.

Nobody will ever think of Tux here.
