Thats an excelent idea -- its always good to have different ideas so the best solution can be found. I would support the introduction of this idea, if my idea is rejected. Compolsory *core* GNOME ports, such as gnomesession, nautilus, and other portsm, could be added as dependicies to the gnome2-lite port so people can be sure that they have all the neccessary GNOME bits and also be able to specify excatly what applications they install after they have done building the gnome2-lite ports. - James
