Would need to find out how many are still using gnome1 only and which of
the gnome1 apps are still being used. I know I use Kino and they are
not in any rush to convert.

Also need to determine if gnome only apps should be in the gnome section
or if they should be split out to the other sections. And should that
include those considered to be gnome core libs and programs. Not sure
how others look for programs they want to install. I wouldn't mind
seeing a split such as:

gnome-libs
gnome-apps
gnome1-libs
gnome1-apps
