"Its a great dream.
My issues with it are, why would a Linux user that didn't use windows
still come back to code this? There are already at at least a handful
of Gnome themes out and some KDE themes too that could easily be
re-tasked to do what you are describing.
"I'm all for helping people move to Linux. What you propose doesn't
really get LS on Linux though. It moves people from windows were LS is
to Linux were LS is not( at least without WINE), which is
exceptionally backwards if you are trying to save LS.
"If you want to save LS you need to focus on LS."
---------------------
I have to agree here. The purpose of LS is to provide a more powerful,
intuitive and customizable environment for Windows, not provide Linux with
new converts. If we can make Windows more attractive to those who use Linux,
would they come back?
