I wish I knew how to fight this idea that a project is its code, and not its community and values and expected future. GNOME 2 is certainly not the same GNOME 2 as it was 10 years ago, despite the code not having gone everywhere. Something like MATE might be, but its difference from GNOME 2 lies precisely in its existence as a community with values separate from the GNOME community and values.
