Sounds good, Gabriel. I think that's the entire list of "standards" that we
should look at.

The topic of GNOME standards for the idea of "GNOME Apps" for GNOME 3.0 may
have already been discussed in detail somewhere else. If it has been, please
point it out.

In addition to clarifying the criteria for platform compliance, my intention
for starting this thread is to give those apps and the standards some
publicity. It may be via a section on gnome.org, "GNOME Compliant" badges on
an app similar to the Ubuntu Software Center (could be a new GNOME app),
blog posts, or whatever.

Ideas?
