It's incomplete. Most of it, were you see the ??, need to have their
dependencies reviewed, and there is a lot of placeholders for the
description text with the new packages. I've found it a battle to keep
up with the minor revisions. I don't think I have the time to do all
this. I could just dump all the stuff as is, and let other people update
the individual pages as required? Let me know if there is any objections
to this approach.

As it stands, if you follow the gnome 3.2 build, it should be successful.
The other thing you may have noticed is that the core chapter is not in
itself a minimal build as previously.

Yes there is a volume control but I'm not sure which package it is part
of. I'm guessing it is either gnome-shell and/or gnome-control-center.

As mentioned above, I'll probably won't have enough time to do all this
before the next release (3.4). There are just too many packages.

 At this rate, only ImageMagick
