Not that I've heard of. Part of the problem is we're not sure we actually have any low contrast users at all at the moment, though, which is why I've asked the a11y folks if they'd object to us streamlining things a bit by stripping out the highest maintenance part (the icon theme). It would also close a ton of missing icon bugs, of course :) Cheeri, Calum. -- CALUM BENSON, Usability Engineer Sun Microsystems Ireland mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] GNOME Desktop Group http://ie.sun.com +353 1 819 9771 Any opinions are personal and not necessarily those of Sun Microsystems _______________________________________________ gnome-themes-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-themes-list
