But, my goal for Edgy is to make an entire suite of ORIGINAL artwork
to be there by default. Except for the Ubuntulooks Engine (which
should stay, because we like it and all), I want every piece of
artwork in Edgy to be original, not based off anything, built from
scratch. I've been concerned that the Ubuntu installations have not
had 100% original Artwork. On the first version, we used Industrial
and a theme based off Glider, 5.04 at least used the ClearLooks
engine, but still that Metacity theme stayed! Now for Dapper, we do
have an original Theme engine (based off ClearLooks), we have a brand
new original icon set (built from scratch!), but now your "Human"
metacity is based off ClearLooks 2 Metacity. Why can't we have 100%
original stuff?! And I can even tell the difference between Human
Metacity and ClearLooks 2 Metacity (slightly different buttons). Even
worse, we had several GREAT metacity suggestions on the wiki that we
completely ignored!
There, now that my rant is over, let me catch my breath...

Why reinvent the wheel a bazillion times just because something is Not
Invented Here[tm]?
Perhaps it should be a nice idea to start polishing other parts of the
interface during Edgy. There are lots of stuff that needs a lot of love
from talented artists, both in Ubuntu and on the free desktop in general.
