True, but for that we could probably take help from Gustavo Franco perhaps as he's the maintainer for the desktop-base package which has themes like these or maybe he can suggest or do something like desktop-base-more/extra (some name) . > I wanted to do some designs for Open Office als well, but I never > received any reply to my questions... What replies you didn't receive ? I do remember giving you the link of the guide and some generic info [0] . I am just a user. There are couple of ways perhaps you could have tried if I was unable to answer any of your queries.

Joan I can file an RFP (Request for Package) on the Debian BTS and also simultaneously asking the desktop-base maintainer (as I have cc'ed) to know/understand what would be the best way forward. I do know that the official entry would probably make it to the desktop-base package after votes are pulled in and whatever else that needs to be done. >> Thanks! >> >> >> 2012/4/4 shirish शिरीष <[email protected]> >> Hi all, >> First of all please CC me as I'm not subscribed to the list . >> >> It would be nice if some of this artwork could be in form >> of .deb >> packages which one could install at any given point in time.
