I don't think *anybody* can make a guarantee, it may turn in the end all 
our proposals are crap or something.

But keep in mind a few things:
- currently Red Hat does not have any employee in charge of desktop 
artwork (since Diana left) and probably will not have someone for this 
entire release cycle (or until too late in the release cycle);
- the entire talk was started by Matthias from the Red Hat Desktop Team;
- we have support from the Fedora leadership:

I don't think anyone can make better guarantees, but this look good 
enough to me.
