Okay, this is described on my update to the modules list, which isn't on
dotplan yet because I've just moved and don't have access to my machine
yet... Messy. :-|

Anyway, from memory:

  Developer Platform - GNOME libraries with API/ABI guarantees across major
    releases

  Desktop - The basic components of a modern desktop environment

  Fifth Toe - Awesome GNOME software not included in the Desktop release,
    mostly high-standard utilities and network tools that we want to promote
    as cool GNOME software

  Hacker Tools - GNOME developer utilities and tools such as Glade, Memprof,
    Anjuta, etc.

  Office - The GNOME Office Suite

Howzat? :-)
