Vincent, no you are absolutely not, I think I know ~70% of the team (read 
extremely limited).
And you are really really fantastic guys, absolutely passionate by there DE.

I (KDE guy) send you a lot of encouragement and support in this hard time to 
get changes accepted by end users.
What I can said, is I've try Gnome3 to being able to demo it during exhibition.
And really I prefer (400% time) Gnome3 over gnome2.

ps : in 3 years you will have users than want gnome2 back, like we saw that in 
kde :-)
