CB has replied very generously and it looks like Helius for Ravennuke 2.10 will be hosted here if the changes I made are satisfactory. And I very much appreciate the review by you themes specialists since I'm just a part timer at that.
Again sorry for my impatience and any "tone" that might have seemed "accusatory". I was just enthusiastic to get this done. The Helius theme looks great visually and I was anxious to have it fit right in with Ravennuke 2.10 and meet the needs of some of the folks in our Forums there.
On a technical level, anyone interested in programming themes might want to look at:

which discusses the eval function. This is used heavily in some of the themes and I've been eliminating it on a case by case basis from Ravennuke version of themes (though the project will not be completed for all themes by the release of 2.10).
