Wa alaykom assalem wa rahmato Allah, So you propose that we adopt Gnome shell in Sabily Uhud instead of Gnome 2 and Unity? if you agree that it is better and just we need some time to adopt our software to GTK3 so I don't see any problem in reporting the date of Sabily Uhud release to be a little bit far from the date of release of ubuntu 11.10 so we get the necessary time to do a good job..what do you think?
