Ah, cool!  Great to hear :-)  Any chance to make the archive available
to people to try out?

Well, for example, an variant on the new ubuntu GTK theme will require
0.98 or higher.
Otherwise, the couple I had run across this morning:

http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/absolute?content=126326

These are a couple from a recent article I found about "new GTK themes
you should try out" ; browsing gnome-look for a few popular items will
show quite a few.

Sorry, perhaps poor wording.  I meant, that people using a desktop
environment for years to come might appreciate having access to some
of the newer themes, without having to compile a newer murrine engine
just to facilitate the requirements.

Actually, it's not that they are that great and should be included -
it's that users will run in to some that might look nice, and not be
able to try them out.
