Thanks we have been waiting a long time for this, ... downloading ...
installing ... arg, it doesn't include the nice (nicest) Debian Logo
theme that was found in Sean Harshbarger's gdm-themes package.

Is there a reason for that ? If not, please, o please, include it as
soon as possible, as Sean's package appear to have vanished from the
face of the earth. Also, there was people wanting to include it in the
official gdm tarballs, even as official debian gdm theme or something,
nothing ever came of it though.

So, anyone who wants to see the Debian Logo theme in a gdm-theme or even
the official gdm package, please support me on this request, and let's
make it happen.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
