Agreed. I recall a positive comment about Clearlooks from someone in the 
Ubuntu world too (jdub?). It would be *great* to have the the visual 
refinement and polish that would come with several of the key 
distributions all going upstream to one theme set.

Hey Novell people: what about you guys? Any interest in Clearlooks?

So yeah, +1 for Clearlooks and hooray for the future!
