 Assigned to:  drumm
 Reported by:  drumm
 Updated by:   kbahey
 Status:       patch

I was about to do something similar on a less ambitious scale (mainly
the connect function), because what we get now is ugly and looks
unprofessional.


+1 from me for this. Great job!

New Druplicon which will need to replace misc/druplicon.png. The current
file in that location is a giant flat druplicon which isn't used
anywhere.

This patch makes the database errors which occur when the database
connection information is wrong or the database isn't up much nicer and
more explanatory. To do this it adds a themeable function,
theme_maintenance_page(), and a way to get Drupal running without a
theme but the ability to execute themeable functions in the usual way.
This means we can use the same code to give upgrade.php a nicer look in
the future.
