[After this release I think I'm going to stop working on the theme for a
while.]

Dust 0.3.0 won't look very different from 0.2.9; don't expect a lot.

New stuff:
 * Dropped Aurora support, sorry. I'll get it back when I get some time.
 * Cleaned up a lot of code.
 * Now uses the clearlooks engine, and uses the murrine engine (tested
with rev136) ONLY in the checkboxes and menuitems. I'd like to stay away
from murrine until it gets stable.

The 0.2 series is still available for download.

Also:

> * In applications with tabs, fx. GEdit, the active tab is too close to
the toolbar over it. This looks a bit cramped. I don't know if it is
possible to add 1 or 2 pixels of free space on top of GtkNotebooks

I can't find a way to do this.

> * The window bottom border appears too light to me. I would expect it
to be in the dark shade of the top. The active window could have a white
highlight at the bottom (like it has at the top)

I've seen the white-highlight-on-dark-bottom-border thing and it's not
very pretty. Personally, I use the bordered metacity theme.
