</I>>><i>    we need coherency between the desktops so we need the same default
</I>>><i>    theme for gtk and kde apps.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>    This is why i propose this :
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>    KDE => Oxygen
</I>>><i>    GTK 3  => Oxygen-gtk3
</I>>><i>    GTK 2  => Oxygen-gtk
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>    We can't use ia ora anymore for mageia  2 because we would need to
</I>>><i>    recode all the theme for gtk3 so better leave it in peace and use a
</I>>><i>    new one.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>    As a gnome packager i started to package oxygen-gtk3 and i will work
</I>>><i>    to have it usuable in our gnome 3.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> My 2 cents: I've never like ia-ora, and if I recall a discussion on the
</I>>><i> forum, neither do many other people.
</I>>><i> For that reason alone I think it would be expedient to switch the
</I>>><i> default scheme to Oxygen.
</I>>><i> But of course there are other, better reasons :P
</I>>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Yeah, I doesn't like ia-ora either. And I'm with Dexter. We need coherency.
</I>><i> So to sums things up, we need a window-decoration, which is available for
</I>><i> kde(and qt), gtk2, and gtk3, or an engine which allows to use a kde theme in
</I>><i> gtk (or vice versa). So one of us, should collect the available decorations
</I>><i> which fits these requirements.
</I>><i> Mandriva has a new theme in KDE, which looks very similar to the new GNOME3
</I>><i> decoration. So there should be probably some solutions, without to much work
</I>><i> for us.
</I>
oxygen is the best because it answer to all you pre requires:
1- Oxygen is in heavy development so bugs will be fixed easily
2- Oxygen-gtk and oxygen-gtk3 are done by the same devs as oxygen for
kde ( so point 1 is also valid )
3- Oxygen use all kde functionnalities ( like tab grouping, ... )
I think we should adopt oxygen for mageia2 ( and after ) and more
focus about colour palettes
my 2cts
