I guess I disagree.

Remember the browser war in the 90s? Internet Explorer had an edge 
because it was available by default on all Windows desktops. Netscape 
could just not beat that.

If you package Gnome with Indiana, the vast majority will just go with 
it, IMHO.

I personally could not care about which window manager gets in as 
default. But since this is supposed to be a community distro, how about 
a vote? John has been calling for one for quite a while now. :)
