IMO folks want to contribute to Ubuntu in meaningful ways. Community themes can be a driver for that desire and a place for effort that measures up. 2. Community themes adds value to Canonical as a testing ground for effort being considered for default. 3. Community themes adds value to the creation of community artwork. New effort is added and old removed every release cycle. It also provides an opportunity to validate all of the "i" 's have been dotted, and the "t" 's crossed (e.g. no copy righted material, agreed architecture, etc). Just my thoughts ...
