Okay, great.  I'm wondering if Richard can comment on this.

I'd, personally, like to get this to a point where we can release with
the Windows theme as the default on Windows.   Since so much work has
gone into the theme, it seems best to put it out there so that people
can see it and see that we're serious about blending in a little
better on that platform.

We can go ahead and make the UNIX/Linux/BSD/etc release, but I am
definitely thinking about holding the Windows release until the
WinUXTheme is ready, since it seems a bit silly to make another
release without using it as the default.

I agree.
