Thanks for you interest in my package and thanks for the hints. I'd really like to maintain some KDM-themes if this is possible. But I have some questions about the future practice. As I understand you, I should take a few (lets say five for the start) themes and put them all together in a package named kde-kdm-themes. But what I'd really like to see in this case is, that I/we should be able to add some themes in the future in this package. I'd like to emphasis this point because, kdm-themes are quiet new (since 3.4.2 I think) and not even enabled by default in debian (which I requested a few weeks ago BTW ;). So chances are high, that in the next moths better themes will appear and it would be sad if we had to stick with old themes just because I was "mad now" to upload some packages. If it would be possible to add some themes from time to time, than I'd get my hands on some top-10-on-kde-look-org themes an make a new package in the next days. And when we talk about kdm-themes -- would it be possible to uncomment the "UseTheme=True" line in kdmrc in future (>= 3.4.2) versions of kde?
