Twenty Sixteen Theme

Led by: karmatosed, iamtakashi

We have the pleasure of welcoming back Takashi Irie as the designer of Twenty Sixteen. This year, the core team developing our new default theme will be myself and @iamtakashi — and you! We hope you can join us in getting Twenty Sixteen out to the world. Along with us, @iandstewart and @samuelsidler will be making sure the ship stays on course and giving us their wisdom as we charter the default theme seas.

Pros: We do a new theme every year. This is that theme.
