Mmm, searching, here is one opinion on it, from Jeff Waugh :

  http://lists.debian.org/debian-gtk-gnome/2003/debian-gtk-gnome-200306/msg00003.html

But here :

  http://lists.debian.org/debian-wnpp/2003/debian-wnpp-200306/msg00278.html

is the message i was referencing from Josselin Mouette :

  	If you are talking about the wonderful theme using Ayo73's wallpaper,
	there is surely a reason to that : the background is non-free.  I've
	asked permission to distribute it in a DFSG-free manner, but he hasn't
	answered yet.

	This theme, as well as some other nice ones, could be distributed in a
	separate gdm-themes-nonfree package, but I'd like to avoid maintaining a
	package in non-free.

Nothing ever came of it though, as far as i can see it.

Friendly,
