Well then, here's to trying something new. Reading about thinks is very  
different from using it; I'm not forcing you to use it, I'm merely  
suggesting you try it - it may not be as bad as it seems on paper.

And that's better elsewhere?
Also, I've seen Ubuntu under Gnome3 - and they've managed to make a very  
different environment out of it than Fedora (one that I do not like, but  
perhaps you will?), meaning that it may not be entirely the dev's  
indifference. It seems to me the dev's have managed to create a very wide  
set of variables within Gnome3 that enables individual distros to make  
very different looks and guis out of it. That in itself, I feel, is quite  
impressive. Nobody is forcing anyone to stick with one particular distro...
