I have started on cleaning up some of the Icon Theme related bits to
be more applicable to icons other than application icons in the Programs
menu. I have a couple patches, and a list of about 300 or so icons and
images that can be standardized on. It is attached below. It is by no
means complete, or a definitive list, but I have put a lot of thought
into the problem. I would definately love to be involved in solving the
issues surrounding the icon theme spec. I think what I have is a good
start to what all the desktops need out of icon themes, so let me know
what people think. I'd like to complete the list a bit more and get some
people started on implementing the changes. It would be awesome to be
able to actually share icon themes.
