Should Ubuntu use Gnome 3.6 or 3.8 for Raring 13.04 ?

[Stinger]

Just think of it, UGR will then be the leading Gnome release, even Fedora won't be able keep up the pace (just kidding)

Pardonne moi, but Fedora seems to have plans for a “Speedy Gonzales”-release in just 4 months after Fedora 18.

Do Ubuntu and UGR want to compete or play it safe ?
Come on guys, where is your competitive spirit ?

Well, well color me happy

Ubuntu Gnome has now been approved as an official flavour
and.... has shown it's competitive spirit

Ubuntu GNOME 13.04 will be released with GNOME 3.6, since Ubuntu held back on GNOME this cycle. We are however making GNOME 3.8 available from
the gnome3-team PPA.

Can't wait to the ISO's are released.

Congratulations to the developer team, keep up your excellent work and your competitive spirit.

A quote from the above link:

Daily image builds are currently being set up and we except that they will be available within a few weeks.

Time is flying by real quickly these days, because "Ubuntu GNOME daily images now available!"

Go get your hands dirty

Kudos to the team, I'll start downloading right away

And of course I'll try the Gnome 3.8 version from the GNOME3 Team ppa

all I have to say about this is NONE of the 3.6 kernels worked on my amd64 box and ALL of the 3.8 kernels do ., now at 3.8.0-12

Right decision.

Talking about Gnome versions, not kernel versions...

Ubuntu GNOME is running kernel 3.8.0-12-generic on my box from today's live CD.
Very snappy and light on the rescurces compared to Quantal Gnome Remix.

Gnome 3.8 has been released as you might have noticed.

Read about it here: GNOME 3.8 RELEASED - SEE WHAT'S NEW [VIDEO, SCREENSHOTS], please take the time and watch the nice video.

Lets all hope that it will land in the Gnome 3 ppa for Raring in near future

As soon as it does I'll try to do an upgrade using the Ubuntu GNOME daily live and the Gnome 3 ppa for Raring.

So long ( hope not too long )

And while I'm waiting for Gnome 3.8 in the Gnome3 ppa, Here is another great video and walk-through of the new and AWSOME Gnome 3.8

Even the Legacy mode is covered at the end ( 9:43 )
