=== Further development for F10 theme proposals ===
=== With or without introduction ===


Planning the theme proposals for Fedora 10 [1] is a continual development and we are in the first round of the process for this release. This week the most notable is an update to the Neon theme [2] in a photomanipulation from Mairin Duffy [3] wich generated a healthy discussion.
On the Fedora Art list Pavel Shevchuk raises an interesting question [1] about the need of a formal introduction for new members "I'm pretty sure people who really want to contribute can do it without loudmouth letters, bringing some artwork instead", Frank Murphy raises the issue of mentoring [2], where people new to FOSS may need some guidance and Nicu Buculei talks [3] about inter-human relations inside the team "spend some time together, know each other and maybe we will work better as a team" and mention about how many of the membership requests in the account system, started from the '''Join Fedora''' page [4] are not followed on the mailing list nor with real work.

In the last week issue [1] we covered an intiative to create documentation (tips and tricks, tutorials, videos) to help getting new contributors up to speed with creating icons for Fedora's upcoming Echo theme. This week Martin Sourada posts [3] a very good tutorial "Creating Echo Icons with On the Table Perspective" which is very quickly turned by Nicu Buculei in a screencast [5].
