I agree that one theme should be done by one creative leader. A dozen themes are better than one theme. Let the race begin. Freedom is what makes Linux the winner. See the difference. Release the marketing budgets of MTV. Give up control.

I tend to say there's a committee with one person on it, namely Garrett ;-)
Code surely suffers from design by committee, but graphics seem to suffer even more.
Not to say Fedora Extras especially can't contain all kinds of alternate themes and backgrounds but I think the Fedora default appearance really benefits from a quality dictatorship.
The point is to be sure the defaults stay consistent and attractive, I don't think there's any need to suppress alternate themes, though I'd say the default install should try to keep a nice sane set of choices that appeal to a variety of people.
