We can't really say we're at 100% for GNOME 2.28 when > it hasn't been released, now can we? It's same for us - KDE SIG. Percentage completion is not the only one criterion for completeness, if we have everything prepared, we have betas/RC already imported and we're just waiting for final release (and as KDE has time based releases we know we can do it for Fedora release). And same for artwork - it's part of feauture but we have to wait for design team etc... The criteria should be - is it 100% ready? If not and it's waiting for upstream release (probably few more exceptions can be found) - is it possible to deliver this feauture 100% ready in time of release? Yes, we have schedule. Then OK.
