We are aiming at icons for applications, not at map symbols (correct me if I'm wrong robert) so while there is a big need for mapsymbols, I'm not going to address them just yet. Creating a thorough set of icons for all foss4g application to use is enough work for the moment. Luckily Robert has created a very complete set for qgis at: http:// robert.szczepanek.pl/icons.php so my goal is to get his set known within the broader osgeo community and get the differnet applications adhere to the icon-naming-specification (which we still need to write down) :)
