Hi Hansom,
Thanks for doing this!
The URL should be http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/cygnome (missing s)

I see if you have now done this... I downloaded it all and tried to get
it working, a few questions/issues:
startgnome seems to find its own display unless $display is set... which
it tries to read from $serverargs
(pointing to .xserverrc). So it is designed to start X itself (in
contrast to KDE's startkde, which assumes
X is started)
I would like to get startx to start gnome, what should I put in .xinitrc
(since startgnome doesn't work)?
In any case, I start Gnome using startgnome and it brings up the nice
splash screen, goes through
everything, says "Starting Panel", then Done. But I get an Error:
Application "panel" has crashed
due to a fatal error (segmentation fault). This seems to be a problem
with CORBA. The following
error messages are printed out:

I presume reporting the problems I am having counts as help :-).
