Re: [kde-artists] User Icons

Hi Nuno,
yes I see it like you do This set is suppose to start an evolution. There will be better Icons in the Future. Ossi argues there are to many of the same kind (e.g. Flowers) But someone like my wife actually likes to have a colourful diversity.

What I meant by saying that you must take all, and delete the old ones is like that was done with wallpapers and other code before. Some old things simply must go. That condition I posted is only for this ONE KDE release. If others take the code base with the pictures, they can do what the LGPL gives them the right to do. With the following next release I will accept that KDE (this artist list) will add other Icons and delete some again. Just for one time I would like to see one whole set as a new start.

I Hope that clears my position.

thanks,
Hermann
