I'm chiming in a bit late. There had been a lot of discussion on the
SuSE list about Gnome and Novell's recent decisions. 
SuSE Enterprise Linux is going to be standardizing on GNOME as the
default desktop, but they are going to retain KDE and continue to
provide support for KDE on the desktop systems.
