Gaurish, Shridhar

    Thanks for your suggestions. I'll check out the hosting facilities.
Currently I'm limited to 384 up as mentioned, but hopefully that will go away in
the near future. Suddenlink, my ISP is finishing a fiber install that should
give me ~ 10M down and 5M up. At that point, I'll be able to host without
bottlenecks.

    What do you think about package names for:

kthememanager themes
kstyle themes
kde3/4 color-schemes
emerald themes
gtk2 themes
metacity themes
e16 themes
e17 themes
sawfish themes
windowmaker themes
boxtop themes (openbox, blackbox, fluxbox, etc...)
xcursor themes

    Any suggestion for some type of generic 'xyz.{app}.theme.tar.gz' would be
what I'm looking for to give the packages some type of consistent naming
convention. Any idea?
