[libreoffice-design] RE: Sources for Sifr icons

Hi Stefan,

Sorry for not replaying earlier.

The problem is this, icon designers use SparkleShare with github and they usually leave scratch 
files and uncompleted work there because SparkleShare functions like Dropbox, and the other problem 
we'll have to give newcomers push access to fdo as soon as they ask to join.

If we want to move Sifr to fdo, we've to make an easy way for newcomers to get push access to Sifr 
folder (only) and we've to make sure they can use SparkleShare or similar with fdo.

Regards,
Ahmad Harthi
