It would be great if Ken can make available the svg's or the png's that
he used making his mockup. Thay can be used starting developing some
candidates GTK made using different engines like Murrine, Clearlooks or
Aurora.. It's almoust August so I think we can focus on coding
somethig...

However, great mockups, it's original and different from OSX and
Windows, we can give Ubuntu a real "unique" appearance!
