I forgot where is MetaTheme again? Is there a mailing list?

Yes that is what I was hoping too.

I seem to have gone into a mild email time warp, nothing new here, but I have
anouther sound for email notification. I orginally sent it to the evolution
folks, because I wasn't sure where it fit. The email sound isn't in gnome-audio
package. So what sounds should be in gnome-audio?  I think the current sounds
plus shutdown, startup, and email.
