I´m talking of sets with 4-5 icons, tops. They would of course be in tango-style in order to blend in with the rest of the desktop. This would not have to go into main, but could live in universe instead to save space on the install cd. I totally agree with you that something like this will be a bit further down the priority list, but if someone feels like doing it on their spare time, that would be kind of cool. Personally I´ll be putting all my efforts on Tango (mostly application icons and probably a complete tangofication of a couple of apps) for this release. - Andreas
Hey, I'm all for more. More can be better. I didn't think full icon themes was the idea, but neither did I think 4-5 tops. That's pretty pointless too. You'd have to get that to 10-20 for the concept to be effective. Other than that and the contraints put on the team by Mark, I think it's a great idea.
