I am running Ubuntu 15.04. I installed GNOME on top of that. Now I am using GNOME Shell. I heard 3.16 has many improvement. I am thinking about upgrading. My question is that, if I upgrade to GNOME 3.16 will I be able to upgrade to the next version of Ubuntu (15.10) when it arrives?

Warning: this version is in development.
You can install the latest version of GNOME with two PPAs:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
Update the repositories:
sudo apt-get update
Upgrade your system (avoid using upgrade, it can cause problems to the PPAs you just added):
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Or if you want to reinstall GNOME
sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-gnome-desktop
To revert the upgrade install ppa-purge
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
and run the following commands, in this order:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
