Re: garnome-2.11-20050610.1755: Report on Desktop build

[Vincent Rubiolo <vincent rubiolo free fr>]

The new GARNOME weekly snapshots indeed show promising but are far too 
unstable for me to use as my primary environment... Will stick with the 
official release for my work (different though when at home ;)
