 Khashayar, I have been kicking around the idea of having a official

 If you're interested, say so. We'll try to get a ball rolling.

 Yes, I am :-)
 But, I'm really serious when I say these are my first attempts at
 packaging. So I will probably get stuck with things others wouldn't...


 It's ok. We all gotta start somewhere and the Studio team knew next to
 nothing when it started. ;)

That's nice to hear, especially considering the accomplishments of the team.

 So as long as you're really serious about learning and being part of
 the team we'd love to have your help.

 The position would be making sure key packages are up-to-date in the
 development repo and getting them backported.

 This will mean becoming part of 3 teams in the end. Ubuntu Studio, MOTU
 and backports team. Sounds harder than it it. Just takes the desire.

Alright, so there's obviously some stuff I need to get into (apart
from irc ;). I've skimmed through these pages, and will read them more
carefully later:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1720696
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Contributing

I'm not exactly sure what the next step will be, but I'm sure I'll
find out after reading some.

 If you wanna chat real-time, #ubuntustudio-devel on Freenode.

 See, here's another thing I know nothing about! I've never used irc
 before. I'll turn up in #ubuntustudio-devel one of these days when I
 get the hang of how things work :-)

 Pidgin can do it rather easily. There are many HOWTOs online.

Great, I'll use pidgin and stop by the channel someday soon. Probably
tomorrow evening.

Re: Future Ubuntu Studio design guideline and Jaunty/+1 idea

 I'm new to Ubuntu Studio, only a 3 months or so. (Though I've been
 designing hardware and developing software for, well, longer than I like
 to remember.) :-(

 I've installed Ubuntu Hardy then added the studio apps.

 I've installed from the the DVD image.

 Then I installed the 64bit dvd image.

 All fresh installs on the same machine, a Dell XPS laptop.

 The only complaint I have with the default wallpaper and color scheme is
 a lot of apps have contrast issues. By issues I mean where I can't see
 the text because of the background.

 Could be my old eyes...so, I've just changed to schemes where I can see.

 My $.02 FWIW.

You can change the wallpaper and desktop theme easily by right
clicking on the wallpaper. Look through the tabs of the window that
appears.

Default theme is just that, default :)

 So. After careful thought, I've decided that Ubuntu Studio
 releases will
 keep it's design for 2 releases. While I might add a
 wallpaper, it will
 stick with the current feel. Bug-fixes will happen as well.
 I've done
 this with Hardy-Intrepid already, I'm just makin' it official
 from now
 on. While this will be a bummer to some, I must frankly say,
 they aren't
 the ones doin' the work. ;)

 Ok, now for the Jaunty/+1 idea.

 I'm *thinkin'* of droppin' the #009bf9 blue and adopting the
 mainline
 Ubuntu colors. I'd still use our dark theme, just use orange
 instead of
 blue. Human icon set. The idea is to just look a *little* more
 Ubuntu.
 :) Just an idea.

 Thoughts?

 I realize that this is an old thread; so just fwiw:

 I was browsing gnome-look today, and found an ubuntu-studio theme
 knockoff that, to me, seems to be exactly what your describing.

 http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Human+Studio?content=59032

 Great ratings, and it looks great.

Welcome to the team Khashayar. (and thanks):)

 I'm not exactly sure what the next step will be, but I'm sure I'll

In all Ubuntu IRC channels we are always very happy to help. So please
always ask any doubts you have, it's the best way to start joining the
community and getting to know people by small help or working together
to get something done.

I hope I see you soon in our #ubuntustudio-devel channel, and have a
more placid real time conversation. :)
