Not yet. :)

We have to sort out better how we are deriving from the GDSG.  This is
both in licensing, and in terms of keeping track of the differences
between the two.  This affects bug reporting, because our version may be
substantially different in a way that has no meaning to GNOME, with the
bugfixes buried in the diff.

Looks as if Pat Costello is the one get enlightenment from, if we need
it.(?)
