The GNOME included in Debian Potato is not being upgraded now, and since
the freeze on Potato a lot has happened on that front.

Helix GNOME is the bleeding, but stable, edge of GNOME.

I've run Helix for Woody on Potato for some months witout any problems
whatsoever (except for those of my own making!). It's very stable and I
like it a lot, much better than the one in Debian Potato.

Just put this line in your /etc/apt/sources.list:

	deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian\
	unstable main

And use apt-get, dselect etc.
