One year ago I wrote a review of Gnome 2. Some people thought I was harsh, others thought I was fair, point is, I always write what I think and surely Gnome 2.0 didn't have the polish or stability of a .0 release. But one year has passed. Gnome 2.2.1 is out, and I must say one thing: I am starting to get impressed by the effort and the clean interface Gnome 2 is now offering. Update: Screenshots inside.

DirectFB sounds really cool. It would be really nice to see some official project set up with the aim of porting gnome to DirectFB. The work could then just be fed back into gnome itself then.
The suggestion doesn't really mean that X11 is obsolete it just means you would be giving a choice of either using DirectFB or X to users. Personally I really couldn't care less about X applications and would be happy to move over to using something more modern like DirectFB. This isn't to say that X can't happily co-exist for users who do want to use it.
What you are proposing is more a suggestion of a pure GTK version of gnome.
