Hi all.

I just want to bring up the topic of the Adwaita Theme again. Sadly the theme 
has some major usability issues (e.g. menu items do not have borders / some 
Xfce preferences like disable frame around clock/systray could not be set).

I have created several BZs on that, and a bunch of bugs has already created by 
others:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=gnome-themes-standard&product=Fedora&list_id=644458

Most of the bugs have also been reported upstream. Sadly the author/maintainer 
of the theme (Cosimo Cecchi) does not seem to take care about the complaints.

So I would like to ask for your ideas how to improve either the communication, 
so the theme bugs could be fixed, or the user experience in Xfce/LXDE maybe by 
changing the default theme. Martin already has suggested the usage of 
Clearlooks-phenix but sadly this theme also has some bugs 
(http://jpfleury.indefero.net/p/clearlooks-phenix/issues/). Zukitwo is a good 
looking option but the GTK3 version is no longer rendered correctly with gtk 
3.6. Several bugs have been reported by me to the original authors of these 
themes, but have not yet been fixed.

People have suggested the shimmer project themes too.
I use http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/MediterraneanNight?content=148398 which has light, medium and dark versions. Maybe it's not of everyone's taste but it works very well.
