[themes] Patches 4.8 - New Theme.

[sime]

Hi
This discussion moved from from the dev list.

This is my suggestion for getting a new theme into 4.8. It makes the 
assumption (one that not everyone agrees with) that the best thing for 
4.8 is to get a new "sexy/classy/corporate" theme - one that themers 
will generally avoid, but which non-technical users will appreciate in 
vanilla Drupal installation.

1. Someone with a good knowledge of contrib themes (ie. not me) creates 
a list of a dozen good looking (and reasonably coded) themes.
2. A public poll is created in the drupal.org forums, and the best 
design chosen.
3. The chosen theme goes into core, and then we hastily patch it to make 
it core-worthy. (or the other way round)

Regards
Simon
