XFCE

[OmniUni]

In case you all haven't noticed, if you wanted to create a similar interface 
to gnome on my FC-LT package selection, all you need to do is configure 
XFCE. Like GNOME, XFCE is gtk based, and there is already a great Bluecurve 
theme. 

Anaconda, the RPM's, the appearance, would all be like Fedora Core, but you 
have to remember that in order to create a release that is appropriate for 
lower end computers, there need to be changes. No one would expect a LT 
distro to be everything that a regular distro is. If the KDE apps can run 
w/o the desktop environment, feel free to remove it. If you can find apps 
that are as capable and small as the kde ones, feel free to remove them too.

If you want to switch GNOME back to the version distributed in RedHat 7.3, 
that would be light enough for a FC-LT.

If you want to re-write GNOME to make it faster and lighter, you can try 
that too, it might be light enough for FC-LT.

My idea is not so much about making a 2 CD version of Fedora Core as it is 
about putting together a light linux distro that has many of the benefits of 
Fedora Core, including compatability, anaconda, bluecurve where possible, 
system-config-* utilities, and a fast release cycle.
