There are two big Drupal theming discussions happening right now, which I'm sure a number of you are aware of, but for those who aren't here's a quick summary:

1. Project Plan For A New Default Drupal 7 Theme

First up, lots of interesting stuff regarding the Project Plan for a new default Drupal 7 theme.

Right now this is a wiki page with an 8 step plan addressing the question of 'How do we get a new default theme in core?'. Step 1 'Create a project plan' has its due date set at November 7, 2008 so get in there quick!

Also, it looks like there will be a theming contest to create Drupal 7 sub-themes for core, once the new base theme has been finalised, which I'm sure will be of interest to a number of themers out there.

2. Drupal.org Redesign

Secondly, lots of discussion regarding Prototype Iteration #5 (including initial visual design direction) of the drupal.org redesign, which has gone online here.

Comments, discussion, suggestions etc. are welcomed by the authors on both of these topics.
