Glen Mazza commented on ROL-2015:
---------------------------------
Spacing is OK, it looks very good. I prefer going without default descriptions
as some themes are just (hopefully) pretty and don't need explanation, it's
gets tiring on the eyes to scan unnecessary boilerplate. I think we're done
here, thanks.
I'm unsure why using Ajax would be "cheating" (because it's easy?), but
post-5.1, I'd like us to reduce the number of <servlet/>s we have defined in
our web.xml, we're using 23 right now. If there is a way to use Ajax while
consolidating the number of servlets needed to support it that would good, if
not, to see if there are non-Ajax ways of accomplishing the same thing for
certain tasks, reducing the servlet count that way. Too many servlets for a
web app might be code smell and a source of additional security holes.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Themes and Macros
> Affects Versions: 5.1
> Reporter: Glen Mazza
> Assignee: Greg Huber
> Fix For: 5.1
>
>
> The theme.xml packaged with each theme already has a <preview-image/> element
> allowing the user to see what the theme looks like. Add a text description
> field as well, allowing for an explanation of the theme, which will appear on
> the theme selection page. This will allow for explanations that a theme is
> intended for front-page aggregation, includes a planet page, features a wide
> text column helpful for blogging code or narrow columns for blogging prose,
> mentions the technologies (jQuery, bootstrap, etc.) that the theme uses, etc.
