Hi Samer, now after the 4.1 release I would like to move this forward and integrate the new icons as soon as possible in trunk. This will give us enough time to review the new icons in real life, to fine tune the icons where necessary and to do proper testing. Do you have already an idea when you can provide the svg files, yes svg is best to have the source files in place for later use or minor changes. In general I would like to suggest that we provide the src files for any images that other have the chance later to work them. The experience have shown that otherwise it is hard or impossible to do minor changes. I looking forward to the first dev build where we have the new icons in place.
