The people I talked to over at Inkscape suggested that a "Graphics Zone"
with them, the GIMP, CinePaint, maybe Blender might be more appropriate,
and that a "GNOME Zone" would probably be most appropriate for GNOME,
Ubuntu, Foresight, and maybe other GNOME affiliated projects if they
want space.

I'm not sure... seems to me like asking Ubuntu and Foresight to share a
stand won't work too well, but that said, we're guaranteed to see lots
of GNOME on display...

Cheers,
Dave.
