Recently a preliminary schedule for GNOME 2.14 was released[1], which puts 2.14 for final release about 2 weeks after the FC5 release is scheduled[2], the GNOME development freeze as can be read from the schedule is in January, which is the roughly same time as FC3t3's devel freeze. Would there be any sense in pushing FC5 back 2-3 weeks to accomidate GNOME 2.14 rather than sticking with 2.12, which also would mean that we would be stuck with this recently released version 2.12 of GNOME for the FC5 cycle, of which ~5 months remain, FC6 would then probably ship with 2.16 if the 9 month cycle is repeated. Given that 2.14 already looks to be a major release in terms of planned features my expectation would be that users would migrate to another distro that would supply the 2.14 feature set should Fedora fail to provide it. Fedora has always shipped with the very latest GNOME version, and as a user, I'm hoping this will continue to be the policy.
