Yes, the crystal clear icon set is beautiful and modern, I'd like to use it for 
the next release!

Actually I'm going to try to find a new look for the setup. This screen I 
attached is definitely not a final version.. It's at least created tableless, 
uses no JS and will easily be transformed to xhtml. Currently it validates as 
HTML 4.01 Transitional but I'd like to have it validate as XHTML.
This will be some work, but I want to do it. I hate HTML that doesn't 
validate.. ;) When setup validates I might start to make other modules 
tableless and validating.

Regarding the view of it I can't do that much. I ain't good at graphics or 
designing modern layouts. I will try to do what I can, though. The screenshot 
shows a try, which I do not consider to be good enough. It's not really modern 
and contains rather small changes from the original design. But I think, it's 
currently not that important, what it looks like. This will in my opinion get 
more value, when we get closer to a new release.

Yes, this is a good idea. To be honest I didn't look at this module yet, since 
setup will presumably not be able to use it, at least when the db still doesn't 
exist. If this is not true, please tell me.

Unfortunately I'll be away from home for the next two weeks and will thus not 
be able to do much work for phpGroupWare. But I'll do as much as possible.

Lars.
