Title:
  FFe: Transition to ubuntu-desktop and provide vanilla-gnome-desktop

Status in ubuntu-gnome-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Impact
  ======
  As announced when Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 was released, Ubuntu GNOME users will be upgraded to the regular Ubuntu desktop when they upgrade to the next stable release.

  This means that ubuntu-gnome-desktop will become a transitional
  package depending on ubuntu-desktop.

  For people who prefer a more upstream GNOME experience, the Ubuntu
  GNOME desktop would like to provide a new vanilla-gnome-desktop
  metapackage which is basically a continuation of what ubuntu-gnome-
  desktop used to be.

  We have no intention of making iso's for this vanilla GNOME.

  So it's time to stop building the ubuntu-gnome daily ISOs now too.
