I have written about 3 4-6 page articles on Ubuntu Studio. One in
comparison with Suse/JAD, one on Ubuntustudio itself and a tutorial, how
to turn a standard Ubuntu into a DAW using the US-packages. Did this for
a german computer-mag called Linux Intern, so I did not bother to
mention it since the mag is in german only...

I used screenshots from the standard Ubuntustudio 8.04 with the theme in
one case and screenshots from my customized US-enhanced Xubuntu and even
some with KDE in the other articles. Of course Ardour, the overall
software-inclusions and the rt-thing played a central role in the
articles and I guess, I presented your work in a fair and overall
positive manner.

So I guess, the theme might be important for you and for some other
users also but the main benefit for the users out there is the perfect
integration of the rt-capabilities and the apps in the Ubuntu repos -
regardless if one likes KDE (like me today) or XFCE (like me also on
some machines) or GNOME or Fluxbox or whatever - your work enables all
those Ubuntu-users to make music with their computers and this is what
counts.
