If we are not there yet, then why don't we wait until F16 for Gnome 
3/Gnome Shell?  I see this as being exactly the same as the situation 
was with systemd--it wasn't polished in time for F14, so it had to 
wait until F15.  Why should Gnome be any different?  Why should the 
users have to put up with a half-baked user experience for F15?
