The present design is meant to replace the OOo galaxy icon theme 
included in LibO until now.

We want to provide our own icons in LibO 3.3.0 so people don't think 
LibreOffice is just an old-fashioned version of OpenOffice.org, because 
it contains the icons OOo used only until version 3.2.0.

As we already released the first release candidate for LibO 3.3.0 time 
is extremely short: We probably don't have much more than a few days to 
create our own icon set and include it in the package.

There will very likely be a second release candidate, but nobody knows, 
if we need a third one...

Therefore we decided to create an "initial icon set" that should be 
replaced by a "community icon set" for LibO 3.4 or LibO 3.5.

This version will be discussed thoroughly - like the "community branding 
design" that will replace our present "initial branding design" at the 
same time.

For the community design your idea of an icon test will probably be 
considered - for the time being we don't have enough time...
