Maybe as a suggestion, to add a little more transparency, add to the 
Silverstripe wiki page [1] a list of main core member contributors to 
the construction of the site? Then the membership will know who may be 
contributing behind the scene. One of the complaints of the Drupal 
teams' approach was that the theme was being constructed "in secret" and 
that membership involvement was not sought (in fact a very small group 
was developing a Drupal theme to present to the website membership).

I thought our approach to membership did involve community consultation. 
The fact that there are discussions that may appear circular, 
inconclusive and unproductive to some should not stop production of our 
work. Getting direction from the membership should still be the main 
driving force behind our group effort and distribution.

So sure, the developing of a theme, behind the scene by a select few is 
OK, but, should the theme not be presented to the appropriate membership 
before it is put into place? If others wish to work on alternatives, 
they should also be permitted to do so as per our meritocracy model. 
They would then present it to the membership as well.

This is in no way a criticism of your work which is much appreciated.

Cheers

Marc
