G:S even as it stands now is very broken on 10.0 so I'd suggest we nuke
that target anyway unless someone has the time to put into fixing it.

The hal dependency affects 10.1 to a lesser degree as it stands with
2.16 in G:S - would it be possible to do one of the following?:

a) Import that hal stuff into G:S and only build on 10.1 (I don't like
this idea)
b) Have a new project for hal which could then benefit anything else
that needs it and change the target for 10.1 to use that project
c) Nuke 10.1 as a target too (I don't like this one either)

Will we get 2.20 in time for 10.3?

I think I've suggested it before but maybe G:U could have a Factory
target added so we (in this instance) stick with 2.18 in Factory so that
we have a stable GNOME release in 10.3 and start building 2.19 in G:U.
Then, once 10.3 is released, import the work from G:U into Factory and
disable the Factory target on it until the next GNOME development cycle
comes around.
