Luis, for shame, with your top-posting. :P

I have had a small chat w/Eric on IRC a week or so ago regarding this.

I welcome anyone stepping into this position as long as they can
maintain the usual high-quality.

If not, the very least we can do is use Olis's latest wallpaper:

On a personal note, I *might* be returning to my home state in 6 weeks
for a job there. (I've been working 2 states away from the family) If
things work out, I hope to return to active involvement on the next
cycle. (in whatever capacity Studio might exist)

Rock on. \m/

Eric,

I would like for Cory to state he is stepping down from his current
Art Leader position before giving this position to anyone else. As
founder and leader of Ubuntu Studio for long, he had to step down for
personal reasons but yet said he would keep leading the Art vertice of
the project. He deserves the biggest respect and his approval in
anything we do about this topic.

That said, I do agree with you in the need to not stale in our awesome art.

Luis

Ubuntu Studio Art Manager

2009-08-17 Thread Eric Hedekar
Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to raise the subject of Art development and management within
Ubuntu Studio.  As many of you may know, Cory Kontros has stepped away from
the project for personal reasons and he had previously been spearheading the
art portion of Ubuntu Studio.  It's my opinion that Cory left us with a
great default art set, but if it's left to sit still, chances are our users
will find it stale soon enough.  That's why I'd like to put a call out for a
new art manager.  The ideal candidate will not be placed directly into this
position, she/he will have to show they deserve it.  However, they should
have knowledge of theming all aspects of the gnome desktop (including boot
splash and GDM).  Is anyone out there interested?  I think the first step is
to upload your work/modifications/etc... to either a new launchpad bzr or to
the user art page in the wiki.  Second step would be to talk to the dev team
in either #ubuntustudio-devel or on the development mailing list.

-Eric
