Hi, Elena!

Loving the tabs idea ...

If you don't mind, I'd prefer Nicolas implemented the basic code to do the tabs since he knows all the code and conventions pretty well, but we will really need some help from you and everyone here to work out the best content and wording (before we get the translators onto them!)

We also need to think about the Moodle 1.9 books out there and people upgrading to the new interface. Will it be so obvious that people will just get it? Or will we need to have an option to switch between the popup menu and tabs? Should tabs be default for new installations but not for upgrades? etc

Finally, I'd recommend sticking to standard tab appearance for now ... we could upgrade ALL the tabs in Moodle to dynamic menus at some point in future since they are just lists. This is tricky to achieve for all browsers though, and accessibility is an issue.

That is correct, it is technically possible to create something that is legitimately not GPL, but it's very hard to prove it's not GPL, since you do have to follow existing code pretty closely.

Frankly, I'm all for losing the license field and only listing GPL themes anyway. Just makes it simpler for all. Is this OK with everyone?

Well that's OK, because Debian fans will be running Moodle 1.8.2 anyway (released 8 July 2007)

They can still use Lenny to run Moodle 2.0 but on 64 bit machines they might have to forgo using zip .... MDL-15928

Hmm, I just checked and just over 4% of accounts on moodle.org (around 26,000 accounts) have a custom picture.

Must ... get ... to ... MDLSITE-550
