It's a desktop environment, with associated programs. Kde is another
one. Gnome doesn't have one single window manager, but a couple of
window managers are Gnome aware: icewm, windowmaker, and Enlightenment.
Blackbox can be somewhat Gnome aware with a patch. But a Gnome-aware
window manager isn't critical. Some of the program are still under
development.
