Bug#678008: debian-installer: "Space fun" theme considered harmful

[Phil Petit <ppetit69@gmail.com>]

I feel I should put in my 2 cents worth.  I don't qualify as a developer, but I do qualify as an old fogy.
I like the "Space Fun" theme.  I think it shows a willingness to be a bit whimsical, when the occasion
permits.  We don't want to be stogy like microsoft. :-)

Can we keep this bug report open, as a way of tracking this issue in the
period before Wheezy release?

Before the previous release there was a public Call For Proposals and the decision on the artwork to use on the release was the 'Space Fun' theme.
IIRC For the first time Debian used a consistent artwork among desktop, installer, boot, cd covers, ... even for the website. Yay!

I may like the artwork or not but IMO the process was well conducted so I don't agree this is an issue.

For Wheezy, and for quite a time, the Call For Proposals [1] it's open and the process will follow.
