Obsessively follow? All you had to do was install Fedora 12, 13 or 14 and hit the 'GNOME Shell' button in desktop-effects.
The only thing that you didn't think about is there a some of us that didn't use desktop-effects or 3D on the desktop at all.
That's your decision. What I was objecting to was the odd assertion that you had to 'obsessively follow' upstream to see what Shell looked like, prior to F15. This simply isn't true. I never claimed that everyone did, or should, try Shell in F12-F14; I just pointed out that it was much easier than the characterization of 'obsessively following upstream' made it out to be.
