Just figured I'd drop a line here. The first theme to be published on drupal.org as a result of the ELMS project has been released. This will effectively replace all of our default course themes that we roll out. I figured I'd share as it was developed specifically for the educational sector of the drupal community.
http://drupal.org/project/chamfer
The purpose of the theme is to make it easy for those managing drupal sites but not coding for theme to push out high quality themes for their websites. Feedback much appreciated as we're looking to make this as flexible as possible. You can already turn on and off all kind of colors and features of the theme so please check it out and let us know! Should be 2 other ELMS themes out in the future whenever I get time to publish :p
