There are plenty of icons on websites (favicon.ico), which is why the ICO engine was placed in Qt in the first place. In addition, there's no third-party library required, this is all Qt-based code.

Removing the files will not make the repository smaller. The actual checkout size for most people will also be the same, since we're not proposing removing from Qt, just moving around. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
