With the released 2.9.2, you should still be able to check out the theme 
(install it in %APPDATA%/GIMP/2.9/themes/ on Windows, 
NSApplicationSupportDirectory/GIMP/2.9/themes/ under OSX and 
~/.config/GIMP/2.9/themes under Unix-like systems).

You won't be able to see the Symbolic icon set though, but anyway this 
is a separate thing now (the theme does not embed the icons anymore, so 
that in the end, you will be able to use the dark theme with the color, 
the symbolic set, or any other user-contributed icon set).

Anyway this thread is to discuss the theme part only (colors, contrasts, 
borders, scrollbar, and other theme stuff) so it does not matter. I only 
made this note for testers not to be surprised if you don't see the 
symbolic icons which many screenshots show.
Sorry, that was confusing. My fault.
