Well, as CDE is not shipped with Mandrake, I guess Mandrake should omit it.

So I vote for:
"GNOME is similar in purpose and scope to KDE."  
or just
"GNOME is (yet) another Desktop Environment"

//  as Enligthenment (0.17) is now also becoming Desktop Environment, we will 
have much more choice in nearest future. 

I hope description will be changed not only in gnome-applets, but also in 
other gnome-* packages.
