Hey Ben,

Gnome 2 hasn't gone anywhere. It's not been taken away. It's just not under
active development by the Gnome Foundation any more though I believe some
people are working on a fork at
http://matsusoft.com.ar/redmine/projects/mate if that's of interest.

I doubt any future Fedora releases will sate your requests as they tend to
track upstream Gnome but, as that's a distribution choice, you may be better
off emailing the Fedora Desktop List at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop

Hope that helps,
Nick
