The fedora-desktop list is usually where we discuss this, and we "announced" this in the "GTK+3 advisiblity for F14?" thread, after the upstream announcements were made (which I guess were pretty well publicised). If in any doubts, hop on #fedora-desktop on GIMPNet, and I'm sure there'll be people to infirm or confirm your suspicions in the future.
