> It's very hard to find a list of projects in GNOME.

This is somewhat linked to the "what is GNOME" problem I'd guess. And,
would projects mean projects that use the gnome.org infrastructure for
hosting or, ones that constitute pretty boxes when tries to visualize
the GNOME "ecosystem" (another cliched word *sigh*) ?

The above is an interesting catch :)

I have been reading up on the Fedora Community pages and, thoughts
behind the designs. Being an ignorant chap myself, I do get amazed at
how simple tweaks can change the end-user perception of a project
entry page. <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Website_redesign_2009> has
a bunch of links that can help when discussing a redesign for the
gnome.org page.
