Thanks,

Please about the colours scheme please report a bug, this is a typo of 
mine that I miss when I set up the colors .

sorry I guess that taste is something people is never going to agree 
100% :-)

thanks for pointing this out, even do you may agree this is not a big 
issue, is worth adding.
about the way KDM have it's login screen, if you read builder you will 
find out most of the reasons why
we try to keep the original format, kubuntu login is way different as 
the ubuntu one for this when we migrate
packages this is also the case for now, in the future we may create our 
own packages with our themes, if we have enough community developers 
working with gNewSense, then we can go crazy trying to do our own thing 
instead of just cleaning K/Ubuntu, for now we have to work with what we 
have and the main focus is to have a Free system.

this brings me to another topic and since I have a break at work I will 
take the occasion...
I will like to inspire some of you to join us to make not only a free 
system but also a system that feels good to each of us in our heart and 
in our mind, technically and artistically, we have made big progress, 
Brian and Paul have done an huge job bringing us a system for us
to pick up and move forward with it, in general this is looking very 
good, I have meet new people, and I feel I am collaborating for once in 
a project that is worth the hard work, if you are one of those that 
think that it can't help you may be wrong there are so many ways to help 
a project  and a Idea... everyone is good at something, just speak up 
and tell us what is you do or wish to do, I see almost no comments 
around the general forums, some  help trying to  reach out  to the 
community will be really good, post the 1.1 announcement on Slashdot, 
Barrapunto and other tech news sites... I think you guys get the idea.

Thanks to everyone and big thanks to Brian and Paul.
