GNOME is "first among equals" to be sure - it's what we have the most
expertise with, it's what we support and the GNOME project has a design
goal that's consistent with Red Hat's own.  There's a natural alignment.
So if the Red Hat folks decide that we want to do a single CD install,
it will probably use GNOME as the desktop and its apps as the defaults.

That's not to say that we wouldn't enable others to create something
KDE-based or xfce based.  Quite the opposite, we would encourage it.  We
just wouldn't spend a huge amount of time on it ourselves.
