About mutter
============
Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages
your desktop via OpenGL. Mutter combines a sophisticated display
engine using the Clutter toolkit with solid window-management logic
inherited from the Metacity window manager.
While Mutter can be used stand-alone, it is primarily intended to be
used as the display core of a larger system such as GNOME Shell. For
this reason, Mutter is very extensible via plugins, which are used
both to add fancy visual effects and to rework the window management
behaviors to meet the needs of the environment.

About GNOME Shell
=================
GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME 3
desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME
Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware
and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a
visually attractive and easy to use experience.
Tarball releases are provided largely for distributions to build
packages. If you are interested in building GNOME Shell from source,
we would recommend building from version control using the build
script described at:
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell
Not only will that give you the very latest version of this rapidly
changing project, it will be much easier than get GNOME Shell and its
dependencies to build from tarballs.

I have been using Gnome 3.8 exclusively and really like it. I have one
suggestion, could you move the Applications button on the dock to the
top and the Frequent/All to the top as well.
Let me explain;
You move the mouse to the left or press the Super key, most I think
might use the mouse. Well with the Applications button at the top if
you want to see the Frequent or All, those options are right there.
Just a slight movement of the mouse and you got it.
Less moving of the mouse from top to bottom then over and then up.
One other idea I had, take it for what its worth, move the Workspaces to
just the right of the dock. That way if you use the mouse to bring up
the Overview, everything it right there. Just move the mouse down and
pick the Workspace you desire.
Using the Super Key, sort of, just sort of, makes my idea somewhat odd.
But most people, least developers and those using an application, might,
just might, have their hand on the mouse more often than of the keyboard?
Anyway, it's just an idea I had.
Regards,
Marshall Neill

There is an extension to move the App button.
