We have an external icon designer, and are trying to get as many icons
to the new spec as possible before release. We will also ship, two to
four weeks after release, an update which tidies up any loose ends. The
distributor logo has gone through many revisions (there's a new one
coming shortly today) which attempt to do justice to the Ubuntu logo in
that tiny space - so far IMO unsuccessfully. We will keep pushing to the
end, to try and get the best balance.

You say "don't make any mistakes" but clearly, since the theme is
incomplete, we have to keep going to get as much completeness as possible.

As far as I am aware the next drop should:

 - address the jumping netstatus icon
 - introduce a new variant of the distributor logo
 - make the volume bars black again (instead of orange at higher volume)
 - revert the gaim icon (we don't have time to make all the notifiers
consistent)

Thank you,
Mark
