Subteams would not measure success by whether they became default, but by whether they made good work that was included in Universe. There is no "Only one gets chosen" - all 5 teams start out with the clear understanding they are makking work to be included in the repositories, NOT as default. Seriously - Epiphany devs don't give up because Firefox is default, Claws-mail still rocks and gets used when Evolution comes on the disk, and in the current environment, if you want to make big changes to the way Ubuntu looks, you better not expect to do it through the default channels. Once this team has proved itself as more than a conversation, maybe that will change. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
