Hi,

 

This is the official call for proposals for the Stretch cycle. Please

look on the wiki[1]. At the same time, we would like to thank Juliette

Taka BELIN for doing the Lines theme for Jessie[2].

 

So, if you would like (or know someone who would like) to create a

desktop look and feel that will be seen by trillions[3] of people, be

sure to send in your artwork ASAP!

 

Deadline for submissions: 5th of September 2016

 

The artwork is usually picked based on which theme looks the most:

 

- "Debian"

 

(I am not defining this since I think everyone has their own take

of what Debian means to them)

 

- plausible to integrate without patching core software

 

(As much as we love some of the insanely hot looking themes, some

would require heavy GTK+ theming and patching GDM/GNOME.)

 

- clean / well designed

 

(without becoming something that gets annoying to look at a

year down the road. Examples include Joy and Lines)

 

For more information / details, please post to the Debian Desktop[4]

list, I will set the reply-to, if others want to continue this thread

there.

 

Thanks,

~Niels

 

PS: Also a thanks to Paul Tagliamonte, who coordinated the artwork for

Jessie.
