It seems Ximian just want to jump the gun, but make sure with RMS nonetheless
I think most people are in agreement that GNOME has been used for open source
efforts by companies, rather than the FSF.

Well, it's pretty much agreed on, that this should be co-ordinated as a 
plethora of individual projects, it makes more sence. 

This info should be posted on the web page, so that each member insterested
can join the effort and pick the project he thinks he will best at.

Also it might be important to open individual mailing lists, for each project
there are moves to create an IRC channel on openprojects.net for DotGNU
it's a good idea since it allows real-time chat with project members.
