That's... excellent!
Have you contacted the gnome-shell team about this? I'm sure they'd
love to hear about it and maybe put it on the gnome-shell homepage for
others.
Thanks Jef! I haven't contacted anyone else about it. Although I would
love to share it with the gnome-shell team (probably the design team).
Liam and I just threw it together last night, and it's pretty rough
right now, so I thought I'd share it here and see if I could get it
tested a bit more. ;) (Honestly, I could see it as the basis of a theme
switcher/selector extension, but that's too ambitious for me atm :))
If only I could get gnome-shell to work, then I could've tried
this
out... Tried to build it this afternoon but no luck yet. :(
Jef
I've had trouble building gnome-shell lately as well. Have you tried
installing the gnome-shell package? I found out last night that there is
a package for it in the repos. I'm not sure how recent it is, but it
should be fine for theme testing.
When I get a chance, I'll definitely get in touch with the gnome-shell
team, because I also think we should help with documenting the
gnome-shell theming process. We really need documentation on available
selectors, and what parts of the shell they correspond with; as well as
the non-standard css styles the shell supports. You can figure a good
bit of it out between the included css file and plain trial and error,
but let's only have to do that once ;)

Alright, I managed to get the nightly ppa installed and it's working
beautifully. Just like the last time I tried GNOME Shell, I was
impressed by many improvements they've made. I feel a little less
unsure about GNOME's future now.
Emily, your extension works wonderfully! Thank you! :D

A PPA? Blasphemy...... ;)
I just build it from git, they seem to have fixed the problem I had. Runs
pretty well as far as I can tell right now... :)

Hi you two,
are you building the classical way (./configure & make & make install)
or via package? If the package way, would you mind uploading it on your
fedorapeople.org space, there are people who would like to play with it
as well, but don't want to install stuff outside package manager >:-D
Cheers,
Martin

I actually just wrote a blog post on this:
http://srcview.org/2010/test-driving-gnome-shell/ (ka-ching!)
There's a good reason not to use a package, it shot my system when I tried.
Wouldn't recommend that....

Fedora has a gnome-shell package in the standard repos, it's just old.
If you want to play with it just for theming, it's probably adequate
tho.

Yeah, the package in the repos is stable, just ages old.

Hrm, F14 has 2.31.5... AFAIK that should be pretty up2date... Maybe I'll
try that one out (yes, I'm adventurous and have a f12/f14 dual boot).
