Yes, but how many themes should we keep OOTB ? Imagine in some time
we get a lot of them, should we put them all in OFBiz OOTB ? Also
this means more maintenance. See my message about message.ftl for
instance. On the other hand it's clear than a theme only in the
gallery is almost dead, following OFBiz pace is not easy nowadays...
The solution ? Every author should be responsible of his/her themes
maintenance (for themes in gallery). I just read Ryan msg about
WordPress, I think that this is how it's done there...
Maybe for themes in the gallery, but certainly not in the trunk. There
is no concept of individual code responsibility or exclusive control
over any code, even if they wrote it. Doing so often results in far
more difficulty with hurt feelings and such when someone else helps
out. In other words, we're working on building one big project, not a
bunch of little projects (yes, it is organized in many parts, but all
part of one big whole).
