wip-desktop consists of some upgrades, plus, lot of improvements to 
gnome packages and it's immediate dependencies. About 50% of them not 
merged directly in master. When Danny and I, were merging other 50% to 
core-updates, core-updates were broken. So we tried to merge few commits 
in master, which got reverted due to high re-builds. I was told by Danny 
that we can only merge stuff when c-u is back to normal.

Since huge time has passed, we need to re-work some commits with 
rebasing from master. This gonna require testing via huge re-builds. 
Danny is working on setting-up a powerful system to do this work.

Let me speak to Danny and get back to you here. Due to the security 
nature of this issue, I am willing to spend this month focusing on 
GNOME/wip-desktop.

Regards,
RG.
