Armin, The application icons may differ from the logo. Are you talking about these: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/02+-+Design+Proposal+Samer+Mansour+2013.03.03
It may have been the first version of that that I removed a few months back. There was some design faux pas in that icon set. Please check sibling pages. I haven't deleted anything in the wiki. I've copied pages and then deleted content to make summaries. On Apr 16, 2013 9:03 AM, "Armin Le Grand" <armin.le.gr...@me.com> wrote: > Hi Samer, > > thanks for working on the overview!
