Fedora 10 Themes: development and deadlines

On the Fedora Art list NicuBuculei started[1] the work on the second round for creating the Fedora 10 desktop theme: "since the first round ended, we had very little theme activity, so maybe is time to heat the things a bit" and he posted an "work in progress" graphic[2].

This was quickly followed by MairinDuffy, who, liking the concept, developed it further[3] with various designs, which were enthusiastically received by the rest of the team. She also wrote on her blog[4], showing the progress to the larger community.

In related theming news, MairinDuffy as the leader of the Art Team announced[5] a deadline for the Round 2, as an incentive for the rest of the team and also to fit the release schedule "Let's set the deadline for round 2 to 1 September 2008. Sound like a good idea? Consider this an official kick in the pants to get more artwork flowing".
