Sorry, I did not know there had been a decision on this, I must have missed 
that. If I had I wouldn't have brought it up..

As for the "KDE color scheme", I wasn't even aware that there was such a 
thing. The current default icon theme doesn't feel all that uniform to me, 
and on a first start KPersonalizer has you chosing between a number of styles 
- - all with their slightly different default color scheme, IIRC.

Also, looking at KDevelop's back history of splash screens or at the other 
splashes used in current KDE apps, I can't detect any common theme or style 
either (compare Kontact and Umbrello, for instance).
