As of 2013-05-04 Debian stable uses GNOME 3.4 as its standard desktop environment. I would hope their move can be taken as an indication that 3.x versions of all essential libraries are now available. I think we could copy MacPorts' GNOME ports to a branch for upgrading to 3.x versions. Freezing branch versions at 3.4 until the branch can be merged back into trunk might simplify this process.
I would imagine some old, abandoned programs will not be compatible with GNOME 3, but that hardly seems like a reason to keep new, actively-developed programs stuck at old versions. Ryan Stonecipher
