Maybe it's just me, but all my attempts to get a working Gnome 2.x
out of the Debian repositories have failed so far and always ended with
an unusable Gnome environment. So, I have removed Gnome in the next
release, until there are working packages for it that don't require me
to delete 50% of other packages on the CD.
Christian Meyer volunteered to create a special Gnome edition of Knoppix
with his team by removing KDE and adding a modified and preconfigured
version of Gnome 2.2, so that is what they are probably doing right now
at gnoppix.org.

Since I don't know how far they are with their Gnome version, there
is no way for me to answer this question.

CeBit 2003. It is not a special Linux event, but the world's largest
IT and telecommunications fair, AFAIK. http://www.cebit.de/homepage_e
I will be in Hall 11, booth D42 most of the time.
