Hello,

I saw Vincent's presentation once that said that Red Hat hired any
GNOME's contributors.
Please don't see it as Ubuntocentric point of view. Personally I use
openSUSE 13.1. It ships with GNOME 3.10. Our next release will ship
with GNOME 3.14. So I miss one version. Our openSUSE developers made a
repository (just like Ubuntu's PPA) to use GNOME 3.12.

Having said that, let the GNOME developers do their job and all
distros can follow the release cycle.

Have phun,
Stathis
