The fact that there were so many solid entries this time around is a
clear indicator of how the Artwork team has really prospered over the
last couple of years.  (Has it been that long?  Yeesh.)  I really do
think that part of that success is due to a pretty solid design sense
shared by the team, but yet open-mindedness about new ideas that fresh
hands bring on board.  I was really happy to look around at several
theme ideas this release and think, "Wow, any of these would be really
great for Fedora 10."
