GNOME 2 isnt really late, simply because the plan changed, and now theres
gnome 1.4 coming out either today or tomorrow. GNOME 2 work will be started
in the next few weeks after GUADEC, where they will plan what GNOME 2 will
be.  One of the reasons for the low traffic is because there wasnt really
alot of people working on the 1.X platform, but instead working on other
projects.  Most work is being done on other lists anyway now.
