Re: GNOME 0.2x - Let's fix it and then forget it

["Kenneth Christiansen" <kenth writeme com>]

IMHO fix the new version. Ppl. don't want to be running 0.20, when they
know about 0.27/0.28, and do it quick. Next time release alpha versions. 
Remember we are also missing gnome-graphics (or ee and ghost-gnome) rpm file(s)

Daleak

By the way, if you fix this version, you can include it with the next Raw Hide
release...that would be nice.
