As I said before, the easiest way to have more GNOME exposure is
to have more GNU/Linux desktops. But I think it would be a
mistake to limit ourselves to GNU/Linux as opposed to the BSD
platforms or any of the commercial unices. So we do need to be
careful not to fall into the trap of being identified exclusively
with GNU/Linux.

That said, I think Sun will take care of that with JDS to a large
extent.

Cheers,
Dave.
