themes (interlude): Before I talk about how the theme capplet went wrong, let me mention that I’d been wanting someone to make a themes:/// vfs layer. I’d done a lot of the work needed. Someone needed to just take the work done by James and that in capplets/common/gnome-theme-info.[ch]. I tried to recruit some people to do it, with limited success. I had a few nibbles, but no bites. Then, some guy writes ‘themus’, checks it in to GNOME CVS. It has a lot of work to go, but is a good start. More importantly, the guy who did the work is energetic and enthusiastic.
And, most importantly, we now have modules named ‘fontilus’ and ‘themus’ — the two founders of GROME.
