Re: Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: Initial icon design

Hi all,

following the icon discussion for only a couple of I days, I don't know the 
main intention for the icon design. 

If you would like to understand what users like and understand best, I can 
offer that we conduct an icon test [1] with a set of icon suggestions.

Could that be helpful to foster the discussion?

Best,
Björn
