PR 251 means readding the existing Icons, instead of the NB Icon placeholder. 
PR 289 is the one w/o having Icons.
I prefer 251 too.

PR251 is the original icons, not the placeholders, I believe.

There are two concerns with the original artwork - trademarks and copyright.

Trademarks should be fine under fair-use according to the sources Matthias
linked to (also my previous understanding), and I presume this is how they
were used before?!  Our mentors did request earlier (April I think) that we
clarify trademark fair-use under Apache with legal.

Copyright-wise, this affects the actual artwork, and why I asked about
provenance.  Ideally they'd have been kept in/with the donation, but I
assume we can appropriate them under CDDL?

Best wishes,

Neil
