What was the point of hiding the wallpapers by moving
them to the obsolete
folder? It seems to me that the artwork package can increase somewhat in
size without ill effects as it is optional and storage space has
drastically increased over the past decade or more.
I know several of the wallpapers in that folder are "old standbys" to
users here; I don't see why we can't ship them normally.
My original idea was to remove sevaral more old-style wallpapers and add a few more modern
ones.
After discussions on this ML (mainly with E. and Alex), we decided to change only a few
ones to prevent estranging the final users, at the same time without overpopulating the
list of available wallpapers when tdebase and tdeartwork were installed (the list is
already too long IMO). Further, we decided to make the removed wallpapers
"manually" available in case it was necessary., that's why there is the
'obsolete' folder.
There is no problem in changing things again if required, as long as we all agree on a
final version (either use the obsolete folder as it is now or just leave of the wallpapers
available).
