Well I haven't tested out the CentOS 7 for i386 yet as sent in the
message of 06/02--
https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-June/013426.html
Nor have I seen any additional information. So how is this going?
I'm almost ready to jump in as I would really prefer to be on Gnome 3.

If installing on a QEMU (kvm) i386 VM, you must modify the VM cpu to use "copy host cpu" http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8748 2. The gnome desktop will not exit or log out from the menu. http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=8834 Both have workarounds listed. We should have a release announcement fairly soon and hopefully EPEL will start building 32 bit packages soon(ish) as well.

If someone can get a good dconf working (or figure out the actual issue), I would be willing to modify the gnome-session.i686 RPM to fix the issue.
