1. Should we copy all packages from G:F to a GNOME:Stable (I think we have a G:S but don't know the state of it. We might want to start from scratch here) and then update to 2.24.3
might be a good idea, I guess

Ok, so remaining questions are, do we use copypac or links? Using links will put some maintenance burden on the project beyond just having the latest stable GNOME release, since packages will break every now and again when patches are created for 11.1/GNOME components.
Also, is G:S enough, or should we have a sub-project called G:S:2.24? I mean, what will happen once 2.26 is released? Wipe G:C and start over, or, by using subprojects, create G:C:2.26
I'm replying late, but it's better than never, isn't it? :-)
So, having just G:S is clearly not enough for two reasons:
+ for which distro G:S will be built? + for which version of GNOME is it?
If we just go for one G:S for everything, then it means we'll have the one version of GNOME for all distros. This sounds impossible, and probably not what we want.
This is actually the KDE team model, KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop builds for
the last 3 supported versions - ie 11.1, 11.0, 10.3.
