Well, no, because GNOME 2.x hasn't been released yet, and nobody has
created a working time machine. ;-)  Now for GNOME 2.x prereleases and
snapshots...

There are EXPERIMENTAL packages available.  Experimental is more
unstable than unstable, so don't complain if things don't work, or break
for unexpected reasons.

Having said that, the packages seem to be working pretty well.  Aside
From the fact that I can't get sound to work.  Also, note that GNOME 1.x
panel applets won't work any more, and some packages haven't been
packaged yet (e.g. gnome-games2, sawfish-gnome2).

If you want to try out the EXPERIMENTAL packages, use this sources line:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian ../project/experimental main
