In my eyes these colors have a message we shouldn't give up without

Same with the product information in the icons.
Many icon themes use one or two colors (not counting greyscale shading).
 Is there a convenient way to set up a mask so that distros and versions
of distros can overlay their own colors?  Acceptance of the icons would
be easier if there were a simple way to tune them to fit in with
established desktop themes.
... would use their own icons.

A mask is a term from photography carried over to digital graphics.
thanks for the explanation but i think i have understand the term before ;-)


To clarify what I wrote, ODF is used by many apps.  However, to address
your point, Juergen, we can focus on OOo.  OOo is provided by many
distros.  Each of those distros has at least one icon theme.  Those
themes have basic colors.  There are usually two main colors to a theme,
sometimes just one.

It would encourage adoption of the icons if it were easy for the theme
maintainers to use the icons but with their own colors.
again from my point of view there is no need, simply use the icons as they are. As far as i know the icons were already suggested to OASIS to become the default icon. Maybe it will change who knows but then we should use the new ones, important is to use the default ODF icons without any changes.


It would also help if a logo or pictogram where used to identify ODF.
good idea but should be probably addressed somewhere else
