Drupal Theming News

There are two big Drupal theming discussions happening right now, which I'm sure a number of you are aware of, but for those who aren't here's a quick summary:

1. Project Plan For A New Default Drupal 7 Theme
First up, lots of interesting stuff regarding the Project Plan for a new default Drupal 7 theme.

Right now this is a wiki page with an 8 step plan addressing the question of 'How do we get a new default theme in core?'. Step 1 'Create a project plan' has its due date set at November 7, 2008 so get in there quick!

Also, it looks like there will be a theming contest to create Drupal 7 sub-themes for core, once the new base theme has been finalised, which I'm sure will be of interest to a number of themers out there.

2. Drupal.org Redesign
Secondly, lots of discussion regarding Prototype Iteration #5 (including initial visual design direction) of the drupal.org redesign, which has gone online here.

Comments, discussion, suggestions etc. are welcomed by the authors on both of these topics.

Can you please tell me how to add this guest comment page for drupal 6. Currently, in my web site, users can't ad comments for blog posts without login.

Thanks in advance...

I really need to update my site from version 5ish. Please tell them they aren't going to make a bunch of changes in version 7 so I'll need to modify my theme.

I just wanted to say how helpful I have found this drupal blog. I am currently trying to understand drupal and you have enlightened me with your blog.
Many thanks for your blog.
