I'm actually surprised with the jump in gnome versions between minor point releases. I guess they trying to strike a different balance for the GUI / Desktop and Server services. I actually do appreciate it for my desktops. GNOME3 is the default (and likely the most tested) desktop.
On a side note. One component I do wish Red Hat would upgrade regularly between point releases is the HPLIP printer driver. The version shipped with RHEL/CentOS is fairly obsolete and also buggy (hp-plugin hasn't been working for ages). Which means pretty much every new HP printer I buy nowadays is unsupported.
There is always the possibility of installing HPLIP from upstream, which I documented here for example :
* https://blog.microlinux.fr/hp-pagewide-pro-centos/
But this method also has its shortcomings. And is one of the many reasons why I'm considering the move to Fedora on the desktop (which is more or less a rolling distribution with releases in between).
