Don't expect mdk to rape KDE like Redhat did, at least I hope not. I don't 
think spending time theming is important. KDE 3.1 is themed very nicely with 
beautiful icons and keramik theme already, I'd rather see mandrake continue 
to focus on bringing quality, stable and complete/compatible apps and libs.

I second the freetype. What type of configuration tool did you have in mind?

Revolution is what MS does, it's a violent way of making too many changes at 
one time and not being able to stabilize the code, evolution is gradual and 
reliable, and doesn't require reeducation at every release. It's hard enough 
to keep up with all the changes mandrake makes to configuration type stuff 
(not that it's bad - sure better than the time I'd spend turning slak or 
debian into what I get from mdk).
