It's not as easy as you're thinking.
The KDE guys had some advantage with no major release for quite some
time. Stabilizing KDE 3.5.x is much less work than stabilizing a major
release like KDE 4 - or GNOME 2.20.
So, there have been quite synergies between openSUSE and SLED on the KDE
side - something we could not benefit from with GNOME. And that means
we have to do more work with GNOME and then you might focus...
I'm glad that the GNOME maintainers have already improve much working on
openSUSE,
Andreas
