Shane,

This is a discussion we will have at UDS. At the moment, looking at the
Shell release schedule, and current state, I am doubtful that it will be
appropriate for use as a default in 10.10. Of course, we will continue
to deliver shell as an option, as we we have since 9.10. 

However, that is only my view and my view at this time. This is
fundamentally a discussion for UDS.

Cheers, Rick
