Question Gnome3 on Fedora 14

Hi everone,
I am using Fedora 14 at the moment and I wanted to try out GNOME 3,
there is something like an preview but this is not the real GNOME 3.
Is there any way to install GNOME3 on Fedora 14 because I don't want to reinstall it???

Gnome 3 is not good. I wish I had not upgraded and the classic gnome is crashing on me now. Be careful what you wish for.

There is a live-cd you can use to test out Gnome 3:

There is no easy way to do it unless you want to recompile loads of packages (don't look here for help as I would rather spend the time compiling gnome 2 for F15).

I decided to opt out from gnome 3 and switched back completely to KDE in F15. Hope this will save some time instead playing around with g3. Good luck guys.

Re: Gnome3 on Fedora 14

The only way to have a full GNOME 3 env in F14 would be to build it using jhbuild. It's probably easier just to upgrade to F15.
