Why has Gnome 3 reverted to classic (Gnome 2) look and feel?

I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 with gnome-classic instead of Unity. What I have is an "Applications, Places, ..." bar on the top and a taskbar on the bottom. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but that looks like a Gnome 2 interface to me. As far as I've seen on the gnome site, Gnome 3 looks quite a bit different (icon bar on the left, contact list on the bottom, etc).

So I figured I had somehow gotten Gnome 2. But a check says it's Gnome 3:

$ gnome-session --version
gnome-session 3.6.0

So which one is it? :)

You running gnome-fallback edition of GNOME 3 that looks like GNOME 2. It has all the GNOME 3 softwares without the interactive shell.

So, gnome-session --version says the correct version.
