GNOME Shell: Iteration's what you need

GNOME 3 is here! But this is just the start, how do we make it better, six months at a time. What are the best bits? What needs to be changed? Who should we listen to? And what processes and tools should we use? Some of these questions will be answered in this keynote but all will be discussed. Listeners will also be thrilled by tales of what the future holds.
