Or shall we have this hosted on FD.o? If yes, what has to be done to initiate a subdomain with installed wiki? I'd prefer Dokuwiki since I know it, but any wiki is fine with me. Also I'd say let's not limit this site to KDE and Gnome - why not use it for other Desktops such as XFCE4 and Enlightenment?

Yes, I agree.  In fact, I suggested previously that in addition to to icons included in the standard that a date base exist on FD.o for developers to register the names of their icons. 08/04/07 22:48: Non-spec icon name registration <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2007-August/008689.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2007-August/008689.html</a> We also have the problem that KDE uses a lot more icons than GNOME and the XDG developers seem reluctant to add a lot of KDE icons to the spec.   So, perhaps we also need subdivisions (addendums) of the standard for DeskTops other than GNOME (one for each) maintained by the DeskTop.  I would be happy to work on this.  In fact, I started a database of the KDE icons: <a href="http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/artwork/Icon_Rename/DB.ods" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/artwork/Icon_Rename/DB.ods </a> I have been ill and stopped working on it, and didn't start again because it was obvious that nobody at KDE had any use for it. :-( IAC, this, and other files in that directory tree, might be of some answer to your question. -- JRT </blockquote></div> </div> -- Windows = a 64 bit rewrite for a 32 bit extension to a 16 bit GUI on an 8 bit OS written for a 4 bit architecture by a 2 bit company who can't stand 1 bit of competition. <a href="http://crparr.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> crparr.net</a>, <a href="http://aglug.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">aglug.net</a>, <a href="http://glass-theme.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> glass-theme.net</a>, <a href="http://forums.glass-theme.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">forums.glass-theme.net</a>, <a href="http://lila-center.info" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> lila-center.info </a>, <a href="http://forums.lila-center.info" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">forums.lila-center.info</a>, <a href="http://parrix.net" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> parrix.net</a> -- Windows = a 64 bit rewrite for a 32 bit extension to a 16 bit GUI on an 8 bit OS written for a 4 bit architecture by a 2 bit company who can't stand 1 bit of competition. <a href="http://crparr.net"> crparr.net</a>, <a href="http://aglug.net">aglug.net</a>, <a href="http://glass-theme.net">glass-theme.net</a>, <a href="http://forums.glass-theme.net">forums.glass-theme.net</a>, <a href="http://lila-center.info">lila-center.info </a>, <a href="http://forums.lila-center.info">forums.lila-center.info</a>, <a href="http://parrix.net">parrix.net</a>
