 > Good idea!  Note, I'm not arguing to "never" delete the default theme,
 but suggesting it be deferred until the 2010 theme gets some traction in
 blogs and the forum, and after your excellent suggestion of updating Codex
 gets implemented.

 Agreed. twentyten in WP 3.0 then I'll be fighting hard to have the classic
 removed. I don't think it serves anyone to handicap *beginners* with
 Classic when good docs and education on twentyten will suffice. Leave
 default in there (rename it though) and then let's offer classic as a
 separate theme that isn't bundled for those that still need or want it.
 But as an organization, let's push people in a positive direction.
