Np, I try to find some time, actually I've already started but I have to prepare 
for my Developer Conference talks... Are you coming to Brno? ;-)

Yes, I saw this. And that leads to my idea of sharing brand with upstreams 
(spamming Design team for a few years with it ;-) - this is great first step - 
sharing brand with Gnome, so I asked for [1].

Actually, Fedora is not a Gnome 3 distro only, we'd like to have Unity with Adam 
in Fedora 15 too :) Not sure it's possible but would be great to have it. I 
still think that Shell and Plasma are just reference implementation on top of 
some platform and we should do the same as Canonical with Unity - build Fedora 
user experience on one of these Platforms.
