I'm sure if he was bothered enough he could compile from source, find a
ppa, build his own ppa or collect together parts for a time machine and
get the next version early... I think what he's asking is because he's
concerned about the situation for everyone's sake. If Debian has slipped
a gear with the evolution version, then should we pay a little attention
to re-aligning the release?
Although I think Postler is looking more like a better email solution at
this point. Maybe it won't matter for Ubuntu 11.10.

I thought there was more to Gnome 3 than just GnomeShell? Is Unity
completely Gnome 2x based with extensions or is it not what Mark, Jono
and JCastro repeated over and over: 'Unity is still gnome, just a
different shell'
