I really like the idea of having GNome into BSD... The speed at which PCBSD is catching... Linux guys need to worry on desktop side.... and also need to learn how they are making things easy to use. I'd like to see most of the Window managers like E17, Icewm, XFCE, GNome ported on PCBSD...
Infact PCBSD need not have to give pre-installed these packs... if they could just provide pbi file for it and let user install it! to experience how easy it is to install a package in PC-BSD!

"I'd like to see most of the Window managers like E17, Icewm, XFCE, GNome ported on PCBSD..."

At least on slower machines it would be nice to have something faster than KDE, for example XFCE or even IceWM. This would be a good attempt to have more people using PC-BSD whose PCs are not the newest ones.

BTW: WindowMaker would be great too. :-)
