You tell me how you can have TWO default themes for Drupal 5.0 and then I'll say, cool, ok. But until you can have that, you HAVE to pick one. I do agree that both should be included, and at this point I think that point is no longer moot. (Meaning, both will be included).
What I'm trying to ascertain is, which should be the default theme.
They both need more work, yes, I'm getting the istyledthis.nl code from Steef soon and that will be up on
themes.net shortly.
Oh, if anyone wants to figure out and help me find a way to make it so that the default theme could switch out between two different themes say ever 1min (cron job?) that'd be great. That way you'd get a 50/50 chance of getting either
istyledthis.nl theme or the DZ theme when you visited themes.net
Again, my main point is to find out which theme people feel will be best as the DEFAULT Drupal
5.0 core theme. :)
The good thing is, no matter which way we go, I think it's going to be a win for the Drupal community.

A. Men.
One awesome perfect core theme is not going to give us the real oohs and
ahhs we want.
People talk about how ugly Drupal is. Well, we can show them both how
beautiful Drupal is and how flexible Drupal is by giving multiple
beautiful themes with stark contrasts. Who cares which on is truly
default? Most users who install Drupal will click through all of the
themes at least once.
Get them BOTH (or even more than the 2 -- I still say Lullabot should
get to work on zen and zen-beach) core worthy and let's get as many of
them committable as possible. Let users click through the themes and
give awesome examples of how possible it is to make Drupal look different.
