An official GNU project has a maintainer assigned and needs to follow
the GNU coding standards. For example copyright assignments and due
tracking of contributions is a pretty strict requirement. 

A quick check of the copyright assignment shows only 3 entries: TigerT
assigned images for GNOME ART, Juan Garcia assigned changes to
gnome-api-sniffer and Ettore Perazzoli assigned changes to gnome-libs.
The founders of gnome did not assigned any GNOMe stuff (Miguel is
listed only for MC and Federico not at all).

Compare that to GNUSTEP with more than 110 individuals listed.
