So I'm afraid I have to disappoint you all as you'll have to live without nodoka for gtk3 for still some time (basically until I find enough motivation and time to port it). Of course if there'd be a volunteer(s) who would port the engine code and/or rewrite at least one of the themes to work with gtk3 that would be greatly appreciated.
However, I've not been completely stale either. Since I'll need a rewrite for the gtk3 version as well I slowly resumed on the design part of things and updated a little the glossy style. Here's what I've got so far, comments are welcome.
And here's the other style concept work (that I completed some months ago) for comparison:

It looks really nice! :-)
Both designs look awesome! Keep up the good work. I wish Fedora sticked to Nodoka but if we can get one of your designs for GTK+ 2 and 3, we will definitely use it in Xfce and LXDE.
Please make the ugly styling of the default fedora themes stop.
Please no trendy glossy aqua inspired theme, and PLEASE no blue colored window frames (don't tell me you were a fan of the Windows XP theme...)
In short, please, no trendy ugly things, thank you.
@Martin: I like better the first concept but the widgets are a bit too round for my taste (the second concept is too dark for me)
@Anonymous: blue is part of Fedora's identity, is natural for the widgets to be blue.
@nicu: Yup, the glossy concept is meant to be more eye-catchy, plus the original sketches for it came from Andy Fitzsimon ;-), while the other one is meant as sane, non-obtrusive default and it somehow ended more dark than I originally intended it to be :-D
Speaking about Andy, do you know he's now in Prague? (working for SUSE)... get him for a beer and teach him about glossy :)
And speaking about Prague... a friend of mine, Ionut, is there... he was a Romanian Fedora ambassador and now works for SUSE with Andy. And yet another friend, Adrian, you meet him in Brno, moved from Bucharest to Prague last week but fortunately he does not work for SUSE too :D
second concept rules!
Oh my...your secondo concept it's just awesome!!!
