     Yes sure I wish to run latest gnome3 to experience  its design 
,since it is a primary requirement to contribute to the project(as a 
developer). Yes I have two projects in my mind gedit plugins to use for 
development and anjuta integration with jhbuild . But it will take long 
time to start them if setting up development environment takes me such a 
huge time(It reminds me a still i am a newbie to become developer)

Linux. (To reduce a little struggle going to install antergos, it comes 
with gnome 3.8.1).
