[[User:Pfrields|Paul Frields]] expressed<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-February/msg00050.html</ref> concern on @fedora-art about the artwork process and the Fedora 11 schedule: "The F11 Beta freeze arrives on March 10th, and it would be good to have a background ready somewhat before that so there's time to tweak it before the freeze[.]" In reply<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-art-list/2009-February/msg00068.html</ref> [[User:Duffy|Máirí­n Duffy]] was confident: "I *think* we're going to be okay. I'll know by Monday whether or not we might have an issue." and called for a work session over the week-end "I am going to cram this weekend and try to iterate on what we've got. If anyone's with me, pop in #fedora-art this weekend :)"

A Lot of Folder Icons for Echo

MArtin Sourada contributed[1] a large number of folder icons for the Echo Perspective[2] set, small variations of the base folder icon "I've began remaking the the whole folder set to have perspective projection". He also wrote a blog post[3] about those icons but also about the evolution of the Echo theme "we like Echo and would like to see it being default in Fedora sometime in the future, but we also need to keep up with others – and that means perspective projection" and *his* own evolution on working on them "And how far have I gone? In short very far. In longer – from an ocassional contributor to main contributor and practicaly the Echo Icon Theme project leader... Also as you can see from the images above, my inkscape skills have improved a lot ;-)"

Closer to Fedora 11

With a bit of worry[1] ("Okay I am a bit worried at this point. I had no time at all this weekend to work on it, and I need to travel next weekend"), Máirí­n Duffy attacked frontally[2] with a number of new mock-ups[3] the development of the artwork for Fedora 11. Brian Hurren and Paolo Leoni came with useful ideas[4] [5] for the night version of the image.
