Janet,

It's all there Danny I left nothing out. A lot of what you are talking about 
here were admittedly your opinions....
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:23:48] <lando> dannya: you keep on making comments like 
you are the primary decision maker
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:23:54] <dannya> no, I don't
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:24:01] <dannya> yes, my opinion
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:36:28] <dannya> I also don't want bad feelings about 
this: but, I need to make clear the urgency of our position, and the likely 
failure of your original plan.
Were still on track so far.

were your opinions that you would aggressively interject as I was trying to 
have a find a solution with <physos> and the time line.

The key purpose in the second irc meeting was to discuss the physos issue with 
the way that the artwork always came in too late for a proper features guide 
to be compiled on time. [Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:34:09] <physos> theobroma: 
Thing is, it would be perfect (perfect!) to have it at the 1st or 2nd of 
Sept.
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:28:40] <theobroma> coolo: when is the latest we can 
submit a new default wallpaper, splash, and about pages?
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:31:02] <coolo> theobroma: akademy
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:31:20] <coolo> and yes, I favor a new splash screen for 
3.5 :)

This is my favorite section of the chat.

about any change 
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:21:48] <dannya> once you have weathered the complaints, 
you are free 
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:21:49] <hon> yes I know :D 
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:22:40] <dannya> theobroma: I don't agree with these 
colours: http://img324.imageshack.us/my.php?image=about5zh.png anyway

It was also to discuss that artwork should be considered a feature and be 
prone to the feature freeze. As for your input in terms of what was decided

These are the facts I have left nothing out. I have nothing to hide this has 
all been done out in the open. 
 

 I fail to see your point here how can we disregard that which is generally 
kept to? This makes no sense.

You need to visit this link once again http://kde-artists.org/files/wave/ As 
you can see the proposed default background matches the default background in 
3.4. So again I fail to see your point.

As for the the mention of the 3.4 color pallette there was this..
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:18:59] <kwwii> yes, in general, but I liked the very 
first version which were very light blue 
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:19:07] <dannya> kwwii: 3.4 beta?
[Sat Aug 20 2005] [13:19:14] <theobroma> it is using the same color palette 
btw

I still fail to see valid facts presented to support you claims. We met all 
requirements you said so earlier in this reply.

Judge and jury are we?
You need to recheck your facts before making such declarations. 
While you seem to like to act and make demands as if you are the default 
artwork maintainer. I have never heard of anyone actually giving you the 
task. As I remember you just started taking liberties and stepping on toes. 
Again this is just based on facts.
