In many respects, lots of these goals have been acheived.

THEMES

-Swim's design gives it the ability to implement features which were once
-just fiction.

-Most people involved with WM (Window Managers) have heard of themes.
-Themes have become very popular.  You can design a real cool look for your
-WM and then pass it on to other people to recreate what you have.  But,
-who ever thought that themes could also apply to distributions?  The only
-requirement to develop a theme from the Debian distributions is to create
-a customized Packages database.  Apt can take it from there, by simply
-clearing the old cache, making a new cache from this Package, and
-installing everything.  This theme can even be installed along with an
-existing installation because apt will figure out what needs to be done.
-
-Themes can easily be made using swim.  Here's a list of ideas.
-
-* A module with the capability of taking the output from apt, and creating
-a database which would correlate to a successful installation without ever
-installing one package.  This would essentially be a not-installed
-database with one major difference, this database would represent the real
-state of a successful installation.  This would allow a developer to test
-a hypothetical installation, and look at it's structure.  Then a Packages
-file could be made from this database and tested on a real installation. 
-
-Although this module doesn't exist, yet, it could easily be made with a
-special designated database interacting with the other functions offered
-by swim's existing modules.
-
-* Swim already allows Packages files to be made from *debs placed in the
-DF - including creating a place for a personalized distribution (coming). 
-A person can make there own real personalized distribution in this
-manner, and then share their unique Packages file with the rest of the
-world, allowing other people to recreate the state of your own
-distribution on their machines.
