> Should I know you insist on batch approach I won't actually insist--I'm happy to retreat from this work and let others do it as they see fit. Just make sure you understand the considerations involved. > I would never let your SVGLoader changes in If you're concerned about the size of the Batik JARs, I'd be fine with deactivating this feature until we have a set of SVG icons ready. The SVGLoader implementation is pluggable--you can just exclude it from the cluster. > Plus I found it totally scary that you have SVG icons, and they are not yet integrated. That's not how an open source project works. The story here is that I have a NetBeans Platform application that I develop for my company. Every icon in that application needs to be scalable, so I have drawn those particular icons in SVG. A subset of those icons happen to be icons from the NetBeans IDE. I'm happy to donate those icons, but I have to do that work outside of work time... i.e. during my next vacation. > Consider a new feature where 4-5 icons are needed See my earlier response further up in the thread. > My son wasted his days drawing two icons that have been drawn for weeks/months... It's not wasted time! The first time you draw an icon, most of the work involved is to get familiar with the drawing software etc. Once you've done a few icons, the next ones are much quicker. That's one of the reasons why I recommend doing 10-12 icons before integrating--with more experience, the later icons end up being better, and you go back and refine the first ones you drew etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
