Bruce Perens made a choice about the GUI in UserLinux:

This is interesting for us , i think. For example:
What happens, if FS got more and more in contact with business
interests? The long gone crussade between Gnome and KDE comes after
years of silence and cooperation again to the surface.
And it looks like Bruce has the power to make this choice because he
is the person with the external business contacts. So the way the
decission is made seems for me very unfree, but the decission itself
goes for more freedom, because the more free Gnome Licensing is the
main reason for the decission. So IMHO here business-interests force a
non-free kind of decission making but a free decission ;-)
