I'm not trying to discourage you, but since it isn't packaged for Debian I
think you'll find installing it to be a challenge. I think MATE (essentially a
fork of Gnome 2) is a dead end so far as development is concerned - most of
the action is in Gnome 3, Unity, XFCE 4.10, etc.

I'm running Gnome 3.4 under Debian and while it has its annoyances, it's
basically usable for the task that matters - invoking applications.
