Sorry for the delay but there is a lot of stuff going on here. In addition to the squeaky visual improvements and all of the basic features like:
Clean simple theme in two default color schemes (light and dark)
Renders great in all browsers! (IE6/7, Firefox, Safari, Opera)
Additional stylesheets for print and mobile devices
Customizable views, sidebar placement, and header image options
Semantically Reasonable™ xhtml markup
There is a brand new admin pane that is significantly easier to use and nicer looking, improved speed and plugin compatibility and even some better documentation. The biggest mental changes involve the recycled-data plugin.
In the previous version of the theme you sent all of your data back to our central server. This worked pretty well for us and (remarkably) no one accused the theme of being spy ware. Still, it pretty much was. The new approach is (in my opinion) cooler and also just feels better. You keep your data and you’re just letting us borrow it for a while. Everyone participating in the experiment has a recycle bin. When you install (or uninstall) the theme you ping our server to let us know you are participating or not. Every so often we go out and visit your recycle bin and take a sample. We never have all your data, and if you were feeling paranoid you could flush the whole table. Not only does this feel much better in terms of distribution and security but it will allow easier distribution of cool visualization capabilities in the (hopefully near) future.
We’re pretty excited about this and we hope you are too. / Theme Page.
EDIT: As a corollary to this the previous version (.92) which is a little different visually will be placed under a traditional cc style license - as it is no longer a recycled experiment.
