I do not know. I just stambled on the site and thought that it was a 
good idea. I think I was a bit triggered. Just a week ago I installed 
Ubuntu GNU/Linux to give it a try again. Ubuntu uses GNOME as its 
default desktop. To my surprise I could not use the keyboard to navigate 
the "start menu". I had no mouse attached to that computer ...

I found it hard to believe that such a big problem exists in GNOME. I 
decided to wait until this problem is fixed. I am thinking about 
contacting the GNOME developers.

The site above seems to have low traffic and currently there does not 
seem to be much use to put Emacs there.
