Oops, missed it.

As a user, I don't follow every single thread. My mistake.
So I basically test things when I have some spare time exploring the
trunk or when things are commited. I recently upgrade my install and I
noticed the new default theme has been shipped... moreover this mail
subject led me in to comment what I was thinking about. Sorry to be
late...

Considering theme is a matter of taste, I was asking if I was the only
one disappointed. Maybe yes, and it will be ok... maybe not and it's
not too late to enhance it.
