This would allow people to have a generic DVD icon. If a media-dvd icon isn't provided, they would still end up falling back to media-cdrom. It would be rather silly to have a normal DVD show up with a special DVD icon, but to have a DVD+R show up with a normal CD icon. -- Shaun _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
