I checked the news in the mailing list and see some API breakage and thats ok, but I dont see any functionality removed. What happened to GNOME devs?!

Can I finally use Wayland+XWayland normally on GNOME or will we have to wait for 3.16?

I updated to gnome 13.3 I don't know if this is the beta realese. But for me gnome is a lot smother. All animation is very nice now. Also the new evince gui is much better. Sadly my git build of geary broke. But maybe a rebuild fix that. All extension I use still work after I updated the metadata to support 13.3

13.3 should have been 3.13.3

My answer would be: for sure you'll be able to test it without special tweaks, and to run most applications, but don't expect it to be as stable and complete as X11 yet.
