I don't know the details, but here is what I know: A few years ago a gtk application was an application which used gtk, a gnome application was an application which used gtk, the gnome vfs, the gnome config framework and the gnome component model (corba ?) Is this still true today ? What makes an application to a gtk or a gnome app ? Alex

The distinction is becoming less meaningful over time as more of the "GNOME" technologies are getting incrementally merged into base level libraries like GTK and glib. Refer http://live.gnome.org/ProjectRidley.
