maybe it'd be wise to have one of the Ubuntu Forums make a sticky
thread: "Comment here on the Dark Theme for Intrepid". he could put a
link to the thread in the release notes, or just direct them to the top
level of the forums. we could read their complaints/suggestions here.

that said, this strategy would only cover the English Ubuntu users..

cheers,
