I thought it was pretty evident. Gnome 2 has been released 6 months ago,
it would be very sad to not use it yet in a Gnome program.
I updated the downloads page : http://www.gnomemeeting.org
to not make the FAQ longer with details. It is already 21 pages long.

I use Red Hat linux 7.2, and its gnome is Version 1.4 , before i installing Gnomemeeting 0.93(also 0.94 etc), I don't know it must require gnome 2.0 ,so i continually download required packages and installed it for many many times and tried several versions about gnomemeeting ,but they all failed until I give up and instead GM 0.85.1 on my gnome 1.4 and this work is used several days and wasted a lot of my time!

You can use an older version of GnomeMeeting if you want. Supporting a
new and an older version of GTK at the same time would be really
difficult and pointless as 95% of the people switched to Gnome 2.
