I'm very +1 for changing the default color for the new branch but don't have a strong opinion on which one to choose. Also I would suggest we start right now choosing a theme for the trunk too so that we don't do it at the last minute next time (let's put something different and imrpove it during the milestone/rc phase).

Hi devs,
One thing that was neglected in the preparation of 3.0 is a fresh default color theme for this new release cycle.
What I propose is to use by default a theme similar with the current xwiki.org themes: dark grey menus and panel headers, and a lively colored page header. Besides bringing a fresh look to the default wiki, this combination has the advantage of having been used and tested on xwiki.org for several months, so there will be no unpleasant surprises (like wrong contrasts) coming with this change. Here are two themes that follow this pattern, both having a stylish gradient as header image: - orange: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Extension/Soft+Orange+ColorTheme - blue: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Extension/Soft+Blue+ColorTheme
My +1 goes for using the orange version as default color theme in 3.0.
