I thought about re-uploading the package every few months, changing
the theme, but that would be kinda silly.
What about if the theme for testing/wheezy changed randomly on reboot
between candidates for the final wheezy theme?
Or if the CUT proposals go ahead, each snapshot could contain a new
theme and before wheezy the final theme would be chosen.

I think one month is too short of a time, 6 months might be more appropriate.
