Ohh, cool.

An intriguing long-term idea is to use PackageKit in maemo, and spread
the package management out over the platform as a service: the theme
selector would offer "downloadable themes", the task launcher would have
a "Install more applications" button, etc, and only applicable packages
would be offered.

I am certainly ready and willing, to review patches, to make releases,
and give guidance if needed.  I would have to shift some priorities to
get the time needed, but that can be done.
