I've heard a couple times that the reason that gdm2 is not in Sid is
that it doesn't as yet build on all platforms. Remember, to be available
in the pools, a package generally needs to be available for all
platforms Debian supports - that is why some packages are available in
unofficial ports - not all platforms are available there.
