No. gwTeX is based on TeX Live 2007 (and will follow possible updates  
to the TL repository). TL2006 was renamed to TL2007 and there is no  
TL2006. I should change the info.

There is no more teTeX based material in gwTeX.

gwTeX 2003-2005 = your choice of:
	TeX Live 2003 for binaries + teTeX 2 for the texmf tree + extras  
(for backward compatbility with older projects)
	TeX Live 2004 for binaries + teTeX 3 for the texmf tree + extras
	TeX Live 2005 for binaries + teTeX 3 for the texmf tree + extras
	[ All these install in /usr/local/teTeX and all of this is no longer  
maintained or supported ]
gwTeX = subset of TeX Live (2007) + a few small additions (in the  
texmf.gwtex tree)
	[ This installs in /usr/local/gwTeX and is still maintained but not  
supported ]
