Comment:
use Debian Edu specific DE metapackages; add caveat concerning multiple DEs; MATE -> KDE.

  To install other desktop environments after installation, simply use apt:
  {{{
   apt update
-  apt install gnome lxde xfce4 kde-standard
+  apt install education-desktop-gnome education-desktop-lxde education-desktop-xfce education-desktop-kde
  }}}
  
- Users will then be able to choose any of the five desktop environment via the login manager before logging in. Of course, you can also choose to give less choices.

Keep in mind that there will be several programs for the same purpose (like file managers, editors, PDF viewers...) if more than one DE is installed; this might confuse users.
  
- The usage of LXDE as default on thin clients can be forced; see  [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Stretch/HowTo/NetworkClients|networked clients]] for details.
