Hi :) It is good to hear the differences (if any) are not very noticeable. I think that's the only bit that is of crucial interest to the Docs Team except perhaps in one of the guides if there is a paragraph about icon sets. Even there it probably doesn't matter much unless the different sets are listed, described and images shown of them. It's interesting to hear about especially now that the UI focus is moving to over-all theming through "personas". So, it's good to hear that the screen-shots are likely to be very consistent if using potentially different versions of the same icon sets. Thanks and regards from Tom :)
