I'm wearing a pink shirt now as a matter of fact. I know some women/girls. I'm willing to do some research on the matter. The problem is that this is indeed very cultural so my results in central USA may not be indicative of what's found in other parts of the world. However, USA and Western Europe are very big "markets" for Ubuntu (not sure what the free software equivalent to a business market is) so we should be able to make some good ground from my testing. Fortunately since the themes in Jaunty can have their colours adjusted it should be easy to do some ad-hoc testing. I'll start with some of the colours from the "Ubuntu Intrepid" palette that Ken posted a year ago. -- Matthew Nuzum newz2000 on freenode, skype, linkedin, identi.ca and twitter -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
