I suppose those were meant more as rhetorical questions that we all should be thinking about. I guess what I'm getting at is that I'd like to hear some opinions from the community about the goals and processes for the community-themes package. With Jaunty almost out the door, I'd like to start the community planning for Karmic. So I'm trying to instigate a little discussion. If no one else comes up with something. I'll try to propose something a bit more concrete after Jaunty's release, but in general my ideas are: 1. Define some guidelines for inclusion in the package. Possibly something as simple as being proposed on this list, shared on the wiki, ect... Essentially, not just a cool but random theme from GNOME-Look, but something actually from _this_ community. 2. Set a deadline before Feature Freeze for themes to be submitted. Updates/fixes to the included these of course continue after being accepted. 3. Define a decision making process. Possibly using the voting feature on Launchpad for the Ubuntu Artwork Team? 4. Set a date for the new themes to be uploaded. Feature Freeze? Artwork Deadline? Comments?
