Hi

Interesting article on Gnome 2.20 vs KDE 3.5 by Judith Myerson.

With the new features that Gnome and KDE (K Desktop Environment) are
adding, each desktop environment is challenging the other for a larger
share of the market. If Linux-like operating systems come with one
desktop environment, the user has the option to add to the other.

Because of the ever-increasing sophistication of the new features, some
latest versions of the operating system are including packages for both
desktop environments, allowing users to have the option of switching
from one desktop environment to another. 

Gnome's New Features
In September 2007, the Gnome Foundation released the latest version of
the GTK+ widget toolkit. More significantly, the foundation has launched
the Gnome Mobile initiative, along with a software development platform
to create user experiences across a wide range of device profiles. 

This initiative will allow you to use, develop, and commercialize 
Gnome components on a mobile and embedded user experience platform.
