Aren't you disregarding the fact that GNOME also has a release cycle that enforces a strict bugfix only period, meaning the risk we face having shipped every test release in Development of the famous baby eating syndrome is incredibly low. But it would still be nice to have plenty of time between the GNOME and FC releases - It would give us the option to ship the follow up GNOME 2.x.1/2 release which is normally better translated and has more bugs fixed. - David
