RootFiles is just how STSDev builds solutions, at least as of when I made this. You can certainly adapt the elements you like as needed. I'm not sure how you mean not building the Theme as a feature - the purpose here is only a farm-scoped feature to get the theme files onto the server in the correct spot. Beyond that, you're on your own. If you get a good stapling template put together, I'd gladly accept a pull request on CodePlex.

Just now getting to use this tool –
Everything seem to be somewhat straight-forward, but I don’t think that the ‘RootFiles’ setup is correct – By default it should be ’12′ as this is the hive that sharepoint 2007 uses.

Also this doesn’t seem to correctly build the Theme as a feature and does not touch on feature Stapling, so that the theme is used when a certain template is being called.

First thing that came to my mind, when I saw your project on Codeplex, was the import technique. Glad to see that you already had the same idea. Looking forward to the implementation of that option.

Already tried the theme solution generator and it works great. Nice job!
