GNOME 3 Released
It seems no one here has actually tried using GNOME 3 for any period of time.  I gave it a couple of days and switched over to XFCE.  I found it incredibly annoying as a developer desktop (perhaps a minority user these days?).  It's very hard to switch between applications, virtual desktops are basically broken, you can't have shortcuts for launching apps/programs, no focus-follows-mouse, and the GNOME developers don't give a damn.
