Shure the newer Version if GNOME are more stable. But it is not just about
GNOME - its the Applications - and they matter.

KMail was usable from Version 1. Evolution needed at least 5 releases to
evolve into something usefull.

Konqueror was not beatifull but usable from Version 1. Nautilus was
beatifull but useless. And now Nautilus has been reduced in functionality
to about the level of Konqueror 2.

And for half a year I had no themes. All grey in grey. Only after I kicked
out everything related to ximian and red-carpet and reinstalled GNOME
almost from scratch it started to work again.

I can't count the amout of times a GNOME programm was on about a missing
libX in version y.z and only x.z and nothing else.

GNOME suffers under the use of C and its insistance of polluting /usr/share.
Both of which are quite old fashioned. KDE on the other side using C++
and /opt/kde3 - and that works a lot better.

The only GNOME programms I am using nowerdays is GIMP and sane. gtk is after
all the GIMP Toolkit and should never have become anything else.

Ah and there is GPS. Mind you, my GPS does not obey the selected theme. All
grey in grey. GPS does not even highlight the selected menu item. But there
is hope in the form of KDevelop 3.0.

With Regards

Martin
