Apologies for the delay (public holiday in SA yesterday). Yes, no
problem for number 3.

Currently there is nothing under Vivid Alpha 1 for Ubuntu Gnome
(http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/328/builds). I'll test
daily (I assume this is correct way before alpha 1 appears for testing?)
for the time being.
