Thanks a lot Owen, En/na Owen Taylor ha escrit: > Also added qgil to gnomeweb so he'll have a shell account. Shell account tested, ok. As you mention, stro will be the one dealing with the GUADEC site from the shell.

I have suggested stro to rename the current /pushbutton theme directory for /guadec and restore the default /pushbutton to keeo the loyality with the upstream code. In the previous Drupal projects I have been involved the policy has been to leave the original code as it iss, adding new features or solved bugs as proper patches committed to upstream. > This kind of unconstrained, unversioned local modification is > a distinctly bad idea. Agreed. It was just done wth the best intention to see if the test theme coming from gnomedesktop.org worked fine, and we left the proper solution for later. Won't happen again now that we are inside GNOME. -- Quim Gil - http://desdeamericaconamor.org
