Re: GNOME 3?

I think its a pretty good idea.  It also could point out how Fedora is state
of the art and features Gnome Shell ready for you to try out.

Do we want to do anything with this (might make a good Fedora Insight
article or articles)? Possibly sync publicity efforts with the GNOME
folks if they're planning things? Imo, this may be a good opportunity to
showcase how the upstream/downstream ecosystem works in open source.

Some notes from Paul: "The most visible part is the GNOME Shell, the
preview of which works in Fedora 12, to varying degrees based on whether
you have a 3D capable video card.  On most ATI Radeon cards it's working
well, on Nouveau not at all (using NVidia proprietary drivers, however,
works). Someone with an Intel card that's 3D capable in F12 would need
to check it.  Just 'yum install gnome-shell' and then use the Desktop
Effects preferences tool to try it out."

I've just done this (took me about 2 minutes) and it's pretty spiffy so far.
