"... new features..."

I'm very surprised to see this.

I thought it was decided by the enlightened Red Hat cabal that features were supposed to be stamped out?

Please troll somewhere else. I don't work for Red Hat.

I wonder what will happen if we put the "Red Hat is controlling all of GNOME" group with the "Red Hat is not contributing to the desktop at all" group in a single room.

To the topic at hand, If you compare only the previous release, it doesn't really stand out that much but the diff between 3.0 and 3.8 in terms of new features, preferences etc is quite nice and seems pretty much set on the 2.x trajectory. GNOME developers are also blogging more about the feature changes and roadmap these days and that is a welcome improvement.

To honor the new Fedora release name, if you hypothetically do that, can you also perhaps put a hypothetical vial of poison in the hypothetical room?

This kind of thing is just totally unnecessary. No more, please?
