The goal of CentOS is to change the minimum amount of source code possible ... so we didn't change it. We did get the logo working on the login screen with the latest updates. If someone *WANTS* to figure out how to change the theme using the git.centos.org source code, and if they recommend the changes via patches using the git am format on the CentOS Devel mailing list, we will certainly discuss those possible changes. Remember, we have only 3 people doing CentOS Linux distro related things .. and of the 3, only 1 (me) is full time maintaining of distro packages. The other 2 are concentrating on Docker/Container/Cloud. It isn't like we have a hundred (or even a dozen) engineers working on CentOS. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
