I read that: "GNOME is more than its shell, and the rest of GNOME 3 is a clear update and refresh versus GNOME 2, and very similar to GNOME 1 vs GNOME 2." OK. There is something called "escape forward". I have a proposal to GNOME project and to Red Hat/Fedora as well. Let's take the best from GNOME 2, its GUI, and put it on top of GNOME 3 infrastructure (without GNOME 3 Shell). They can release the new product as GNOME 3 Classic. It will be a gesture to a proven-and-tested standard GUI of GNOME 2, and it will offer all the "below-the-hood" improvements (speed, responsiveness, extensions, etc) of GNOME 3. It will offer peace of mind to current and future customer base of Linux and UNIX OSs/distros. It will be an instant hit and ensure GNOME's proper place in DE space. They may offer current GNOME 3 with its Shell as well, as a separate product, if they wish.
