I stopped using 2.9x GNOME because I was tired of trying to check what revision of which packages works with what revision of gtk+/gobject-introspection. "Compile everything from git" may require users to downgrade packages from time to time as, for example, gedit requires gtk+ 2.90.6 while webkit requires <2.90.6 (historical example). Unless there will be some 'stable' releases of GNOME 2.9x (i.e. those which at least build against each other & work for some wide definition of work) I am certain that I won't bother with trying it - and I would be surprised if many other would. > Richard.
