It's better to have too many classes than not enough

5.x got brand new theme, which is great and Garland is great. Should 6.x include more nice themes in core? There are appearing some very popular ones, such as Bluebreeze. I can imagine Bluebreeze enhanced with color module, which is very good base for some "wiki-like" website. Opinions to more core themes / bluebreeze in core?

Hi there,

As you can read on my blog, I am building another solid base for a theme, WhatsinItsName. In the second blogpost I explain in more detail what that base will be about. For thowe who know microformats: this will be more if a huge microformat, making your HTML actually meaningfull!

For once, it is not about a CSS frame, but about a very solid, standardised HTML with standard, predicatble (and actually usable :) classes and IDs. It should be a frame where you can drop a huge range of CSS on top of, and see a nice theme emerge. Think about the source HTML of CSS zengarden, only more aimed at Real World Sites :)
