GNOME 2.19.2 has been released. "This is our second development release on our road towards GNOME 2.20.0, which will be released in September 2007. New features are still arriving, so your mission is simple: go download it. Go compile it. Go test it. And go hack on it, document it, translate it, fix it."

You are so right. All the time I read someone asking for GNOME 3.0, it seems it is only for the new major number. Hardly anyone gives a reason why he wants GNOME to go for 3.0. And even if a reason is given, the feature can easily be done in the 2.x series. (like speed optimizations mentioned above)

sure, they could/can do that. Yet, it feels like gnome is indeed progressing very slowly (though I don't use it, so I don't have intimate knowledge).
And indeed, the latest gnome still isn't far better than KDE 3.5.x, while the latter saw it's last major release more than 1.5 years ago.
So if KDE 4 comes out, I wonder what Gnome has against it?!?

Go look at planet gnome, alot of work is being done under the hood, gnomeVFS is looking to be dropped and login speed, nautilus speed is being worked on.
I think people only want GNOME 3.0 because of KDE4, lets not get carried away with the hype.
