I would like to clarify two things - I don't know if you can show one specific thread that is a proof of the consensus. I think that there's consensus based on all the conversations here on the mailing list and on IRC. The second thing is what's the consensus about. If I understand correctly, focusing on server software means that we as a group or as the OpenCSW project will not be going out of our way to build desktop software. We will do it for things like GCC and OpenSSL, but not for Gnome. And if something stands in the way of rebuilding the server software, we'll do what's necessary to take it out of the way. When individual maintainers wish to build desktop software, great! By all means, go ahead. The problem here seems to be that the old gnome libraries are blocking progress. If the libraries are to be maintained, someone has to step up and take them on.
