Ubuntu Developer Summit lays out vision for strong Hardy Heron release

,----[ Quote ]
| A complete visual refresh is also planned, including a completely new icon 
| theme that will use more SVG and integrate better with the Tango icons used 
| by GNOME and other upstream projects. Another topic that was very briefly 
| discussed was the possibility of creating a GTK theme that takes advantage of 
| compositing functionality, something that probably won't happen within the 
| Hardy development cycle. The visual refresh plans are extensive, and were 
| discussed in greater detail during the Hardy theming spec session.

Sounds like a KDE 4 catchup. Competition is good.
