Kenneth,
Could you please address the issues that have been raised in bug

Hi,
I'm not sure how to get the theme developers' attention, so I'll try
this mailing list. I feel that the new theme is a step backwards in
terms of accessibility, making ubuntu harder to use for people with
less-than-perfect eye sight, user of high-resolution screens and people
who use their la

I know that this is possible, but the question is how
This is not a healthy discussion. We have people claiming that they
can't live without C-A-B, yet they're unable to come up with any
*concrete* situations where they need it. I don't doubt that these

I think it's quite telling that the people that have accepted X Server
freezes as a fact of life could point to a single bug report where such
