If you care subscribe to cvs-commits (>500 messages per week) or wait for
the roadmap, OK?

The main action for a future gnome-libs is in Bonobo, libglade, gconf,
gnome-xml, gdk-pixbuf, etc. gnome-core won't change dramatically in the
next release (panel and control center). The new file manager is based on
Ettore's new VFS, which isn't in CVS but has lots of work done (Ettore
might send you a tarball if you ask). The gnome-wm module has one start on
a default WM, but that's still a bit up in the air. etc., there's some
other stuff, as I said we're working on a roadmap document.
