I dont see any reason at all. fdo is for projects that aspire to become 
some sort of standard. If and only if a project gets wide acceptance 
will it ever become an effective standard.

I also dont see any possible harm in Tango as:

1) All the desktops are themeable anyhow (and distro's pick the default 
theme)

2) It only really affects ISV's by giving them the choice to conform to 
some neutral spec if they so wish. The decision to do so is up to them 
not us.
