I tested the version of gnome-shell in F13, and I thought it was really 
amazing and useful - except for the absence of applets (or gizmos, or 
whatever the nom de jour is). I can't seem to pin down the definitive 
gnome-shell policy on applets (it seems to be in flux, though I could be 
missing something).

Is it the intent to have weather applets and system monitor applets in 
the first GNOME 3 release?

Sorry if this seems like a "small picture" thing rather than a "big 
picture" thing, but can't see anyone adopting gnome-shell at this 
workplace if these applets are missing.
