If I understand correctly, they are talking about inclusion in the 
official gnome.org desktop release. and that is exactly the situation. 
epiphany is the web browser, totem is the media player, gedit is the 
word processor and evolution is the email application. 
Look at ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.14/2.14.2/sources

They said the GNOME desktop. The GNOME desktop release seems to have 
exactly one of everything and I doubt any of it is half baked. If it's 
not in that directory it's not included in the official desktop.
