sure it's widely announced. For reasons somewhat outside understanding, users seem to react more allergic to cosmetic changes to the user interface than actual functionality.
This probably goes a long way to explaining why the GUI evolves so slowly - every change pisses off *someone* who is usually vocal about it. For some reason, skins don't seem to be solving this problem like they should - it should be possible to introduce changes to skins, so they only affect people who want to live on the bleeding edge. But in reality, everyone uses monobook.
I'd rather use Classic, but there are actually interface buttons no-one bothered putting anywhere but Monobook; saying "hey, I can't see the button" gets the response "use Monobook." So I've ended up having to switch to Monobook.
