Man, tons of exciting things happening in Gnomeworld...

The desktop is getting to be world class and the apps are moving along great... once we get stable G2 releases of the basic software there isn't any reason an average joe couldn't live nicely in Gnomeworld...

I do think we need a community Gnome distribution though... one aimed at the home user. Debian is the closest we have, but doesn't hit my personal goals, which are as follows:

Gnome philosophy(make the right choice, not offer it as one of 30 choices) from top to bottom and follows Gnome releases.
Integration(Gnome System Tools), integration(Red-carpet or workalike), INTEGRATION(Rendezvous compatible Zeroconf/mDNS)!!!!
Simple... only G2 software
It just works

Anyone else interested?
