I love Gnome 3 and am very happy with it. So obviously you're only
talking for yourself and not "most of fedora users".<br>
<br>
I think the main issue is really how you introduce it to people (and
how you look at it yourself). There are a lot of existing new tech
in gtk3 and in gnome-shell, backed up up by a team of people (the
GNOME Project) who have been successful in the past. I get to do
things a lot faster than before most of the time (so it was worth
spending 20 minutes to learn new stuff) and am trying to give my
feedback for what I have issues with.<br>
<br>
Distribution such as openSUSE or Debian are also very excited by the
project and working hard to bring GNOME3 as one of their major
desktops offering (if not the main one).<br>
<br>
At the end of the day maybe 3.0 is a too early version for you, you
should keep using Fedora 14 until GNOME 3.2 comes out (F16). Or you
can take part in the project and help to improve it.<br>
