This connection ends tomorrow. I'm glad to to communicate myself with
you all at this time. Don't know what will happen tomorrow so I'll try
to upload as much as possible for you all to check.

I'm just worried about maintainance issues of one visually unique
schema per major release. The CentOS projects maintain near to 4 major
releases at the same time. Let's see what happen after uploading the
centos-artwork-repo-0.0.1.tar.bz2 file.  Keep monitoring
http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork page. I will upload an 8MB file to it,
and if connection is still active I will try to start uploading things
up to  https://projects.centos.org/svn/artwork structure.

Yes, plymouth is something we need to introduce inside artwork
repository rendering structure.
