Does anyone know if Bookworm includes the Ubuntu-Mate version of the Mate desktop?

Unfortunately no, the panel layouts aren't there by default. However, I've written some guides that can help close the appearance & capabilities gap.

Thank you for those links, since tomorrow I expect most of Reddit to go dark I took the liberty of archiving them so I can be sure I can go into more depth then.

I'm on testing, which just released as Debian 12. mate-desktop is 1.26.0, but a few things (like mate-applets) are 1.26.1 and a few (like mate-panel) show up as 1.27.0. I don't use Ubuntu, so I don't know how these compare to whatever Ubuntu uses.
