I beg to differ, as we made the themes for the community, which isn't just the people making the themes. Also, just because someone doesn't contribute in the official "channels", doesn't mean they don't do other things, like writing howtos, helping out people on IRC, etc. I think we should take into account people who say their opinion on this mailing list. And what about people who are disadvantaged with disabilities and cannot contribute to making themes due to the task requiring a level of manual work? Where does one draw the line? There won't be that many people rushing, don't worry. When I asked people for feedback on the forums, which I presume are much more visited, there were only about 10 people max. Most Debian users also customize heavily, which makes such decisions futile for them anyway. I guess it will mostly be people contributing here anyway. But that is not the point -- having a say is.
