I agree, I'll join any team that needs an artist - but leading any projects
just wouldn't be a good idea with the time I have left.

It really should have a committed leader willing to see a project
through completion. Leaving before that would only do harm.

I can lead a team until mid this-month, get a team off to a good start. But
if anybody has bold and unique ideas, I'd be willing to work under them.

All and all, if people are willing to put up with a guy that has a tree up
his [censored for children] for two weeks, and they just need a design
-started- but want to finish one, then I'll lead a team. In two weeks time
though, the project would need to be picked up by one of the team members.

I believe I would be best suited working underneath someone with more
experience though, and I'd hate to leave a project leaderless.

There is the clincher. :) It really will take someone to step up and say
"Ok. I believe in this theme/concept enough to learn what is needed to
get it into Universe."

It will take learning Launchpad, BZR and working with -MOTU. If you prep
the source packages right you wont *need* to learn packaging but it
wouldn't hurt.

I'm only slightly familiar with it. We mostly did our packages based on
example-look and help with dholbach. Our source package is cleaner that
example-look atm but we plan to fix that.

We're also looking into how to make 1 source package for everything
needed for the art that will make multiple binary pckages. Theme,
wallpaper, GDM, etc...

I'll give the wiki page a look and see if I can help. I agree a IRC day
is a cool idea but yeah, most likely won't be enough. Expanding the wiki
to address art packaging might help. I'll have to sit down and pick a
couple of days to really dig in.
