-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi -release, I'll be aiming any further discussion at -desktop only after this message. Thanks!
But first, I do have a release-specific question. desktop-base contains the current "default" Debian look&feel. It strikes me that a theme could (or even should) perhaps exist as a package in order to get exposure before being "blessed" as a default theme. Therefore, for the three themes that are being considered (and presently are not in the archive in any form), I think it would be most ideal if they were independently packaged, uploaded, and then, should one be chosen as the default L&F, desktop-base adjusted to Depends: on it. Future workflow might have a theme in the archive earlier in the cycle. But that means 3 NEW package uploads and a request for unblock on the blessed one at least (and that looks like Ciel). Would that be frowned upon?
