It is a matter of taste. I think that the best applications are always
present first in GTK and/or for Gnome. There are several examples, like
Gimp (GTK), Galeon (GTK), Evolution (GTK/Gnome), GnomeMeeting (hum hum hum ;),
...

I think that the architecture under Gnome 2 will be excellent.
But it is your choice to choose between KDE or Gnome. Many users use GnomeMeeting
under KDE (like Enzo, or Jeff Mills, ...) and do not see any need to have a KDE
application.

But again, it is a matter of taste. My advice is that Gnome is more beautiful,
faster, and that's what I like. Moreover GTK has a lot of language bindings
(PHP, Python, Perl, ...) and not QT.
