I think we should start looking at the concrete projects rather then continue
the discussion in the abstract.  So for an initial list of projects, let's
take the projects from the 1.2 release:

audiofile
bug-buddy
control-center
dia
ee
esound
gdk-pixbuf
gdm
gfloppy
ggv
glade
glib
gnome-admin
gnome-applets
gnome-audio
gnome-core
gnome-games
gnomehack
GnomeHello
gnome-chess
gnome-libs
gnome-linuxconf
gnome-media
gnome-network
gnome-objc
gnome-pim
gnome-print
gnome-python
gnome-utils
gnorpm
gnotepad+
gnumeric
g-print
gtk-engines
gtkmm
Gtk--
gtk+
gtop
imlib
libghttp
libglade
libgtop
libPropList
libxml
libxml2
mc
ORBit
users-guide
xchat

This is a very crude listing of things.  So let's refine it.  What are
projects that are missing? What are projects that need to be added.  From the
top of my head, the above is missing

sawmill
nautilus
evolution
gedit
