Like I said, if I agreed with you on the priorities, I'd be focusing on providing scalables and small sized icons for all the icons gnome icon theme included, plus all the new device and type icons. And I would have tried until I died and we still had an unpolished desktop. If what you're saying is "removing any single icon from gnome icon theme is a regression", then I'm in disagreement. What's in gnome icon theme is essentially what we have randomly put in. And I am personally responsible for this. It is hard to define what sort of file types are more important for our desktop without having a specific audience defined. Is it more important to have distinct icons for patches, python and perls scripts? Or flac/mp3s? Or impress/powerpoint slides? We will evetually get to these decisions. But focusing on what _everybody_ needs _first_ doesn't sound like a bad idea in my POV. But of course that's hard to 'sell' to somebody who doesn't think the icon theme in 2.14 is broken. Aminig to have the same coverage as git in 2.16 is the wrong goal. cheers -- Jakub Steiner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
