Let's take the bike-shedding about Clearlooks elsewhere. If you have a point
of view for the maintainers, please state it to the maintainers so they can
take it into account. A desktop-devel-list discussion without them involved
is not useful to anyone.

An important point: We chose Clearlooks as the default theme for GNOME. It's
a great theme, and improving both technically and lickably under the great
maintainership of Richard and Daniel. Let's trust them to be the arbiters of
taste for our default theme! ... and if anyone has input into that process,
it should be through the maintainers.

Thanks,

- Jeff
