Well, I think a cleanup is in order, but (a) it should be more comprehensive and (b) \
should be decided on the kde-artists list and (c) should probably only happen in \
trunk (i.e. 4.0) to avoid breaking current configurations. That said, all of the SVG \
wallpapers seem to have been added since 3.4 and I wouldn't mind a review of those \
from the artwork team.  Most of them honestly don't seem up to the quality of non-SVG \
wallpapers that we would allow in now and seem more like, "Hey, look, we can do \
SVG!!!"  (But just my opinion -- again, I'd prefer to leave this up to the artwork \
                team.)
