So the alternative here is:

fixing the problems there, and scripting the rpm/yum foo better to make the switch, and being a lot more aggressive about preventing regressions.
What about hosting a repos.fp.o for gnome-shell in F14?
The problem here is that that repository would have to have all the updates that Colin is saying that we don't want to do now:
- Rebuilds of all the gnome libraries - New pygobject - Parallel-installed clutter-14 - Etc.
So it's a repo that would modify systems fairly drastically and would take a lot of work to maintain. Not infeasible but we do need to concentrate a lot on F15 in this cycle.
