- What PHPTemplate-based theme should we ship with core? Should we port either Bluemarine or Pushbutton to PHPTemplate or should we go with fresh themes? My requirements for such theme would be: 1. The theme must validate as XHTML. 2. The theme's CSS classes/IDs must comply Drupal's naming conventions. 3. The theme should work on all browsers without hacks. 4. The theme should be simple and easy to customize. No themes with a bazillion of small images that no one will ever change.
Marvin2k for phptemplate might be a candidate since it is already done (it might need a polish though). It was directly ported from a custom theme format which was used by the original Marvin2k theme. Info from the original theme: | An update to the original marvin theme, using the latest | web standards. | | A complete update to the original marvin theme, marvin_2k | provides many new features. Some of the features include a | new tableless, CSS based design which takes advantage of | the latest web standards. I am in no doubt that someone will be able to do an aestetically better theme, if given some time. I am just here to point out that this is there as an option. Goba
