Umm - you can actually classify GNOME in two ways:
1) Desktop interface (basically gnome-core)
2) Development Platform (all the other libraries - e.g libxml, bonobo,
gnome-print, ...)

Umm - sorry - but the fact of the matter is - nobody has sat down and gone
through the effort to port GNOME to Windows/Mac/BeOS. I believe many of the
libraries for GNOME have been ported to Windows or have Windows equivelant,
but I haven't seen any projects or developers working on 'Porting GNOME to
windows'.
