Greg,
Some of our design gurus at Sun are interested in helping out with
some implementation pointers help you get started with theme
development. Would you be interested in a having a short tele-con to
kick things off?
Regading guidelies: the only guidelines we have now are in the user
guide about packaging themes, I think that's about all we have. See
section 6.4.

There are also a couple of proposals on the table:
I believe this one is already in Roller (right Allen?)

And this one is still pending?

Dear Devs,
I am on the advisory board for a design school. I would like to
propose as a student project for upcoming semesters that students
create Roller theme pages (e.g. Weblog.vm, _day.vm, etc.)
My question to you is does Roller accept new stock themes that
would be included in the future Roller release distributions? If
so, could you please sketch out for me what process students should
follow to submit their themes? Also, could you sketch guidelines
that might be used in determining if a theme might be acceptable or
unacceptable?
Thank you again for your great work. I hope that you are having an
enjoyable holiday. Best regards for good health and prosperity in
the new year.
