weigh in on the themes, dates and tags below, then brad, when full, please
move to the roadmap...lets get more people involved first...

I like chovynz idea for: "Would it work to have a statement down the base of
a news post or in a readme file stating, "Awesome Spring2010 contributions
made by OCAL authors : <User name>, <User name>, <User name> etcetc."

We should totally promote in the announcement/press the people in the
package... username, clipart name, URL to their clipart. Of course, would be
great to automate in the future...but lets do the basic for the release.

Since we have the special occasion of LGM, can we package things up by next
WED, and announce next THURSDAY?

Brad and others, can you help flesh this out with themes and the dates. Does
