Although I'm not a GNOME developer, I have followed GNOME since almost the
beginning. And I want GNOME 1.0 as a big success in the free software
community.

My point is: we should include at least some of the applications (like
gnumeric, yagirc, gwp, etc) to show how GNOME is getting much better than
others integrated enviroments out there.

The apps included not need to have the last features that the developers are
programming now, but a stable and not buggy release will be ok.

What you think?
