However, AFAIK, it is far from straightforward to "rebuild and > release" it. A usable fork of gnome2 will NEVER happen. People who think it will have no idea of the size of the gnome project and related gtk-based projects. Are they going to set up new source code repos? A new bugzilla? New translation teams? A new release team? A new set of core developers actually adding new code? Will other gtk-based projects (like my serial terminal program, moserial) release gtk2 and gtk3 variants? However, gnome-shell is heavily customizable through extensions. If people want a gnome2-ish experience, they would be better off writing extensions to mimic the gnome2 experience. Some already exist, of course. I personally like gnome-shell. I can only conclude that people who don't are bad people. People who kill kittens.
