Re: [libreoffice-design] Agenda for the design meeting 2018 Mar/21

But do the icon sets being offered interfere in any way or are a big burden
to the install files of Libre Office?
IMO,  they're well hidden already, and only people that want to change them
will look for them. Doesn't having them in the suite by default facilitate
the job of maintainers in picking the icon set they prefer (ex. KDE distro
devs picking Breeze, Gnome-based distro devs picking Tango or Sifr, etc).

Either way, I don't believe that backporting to 6.0 is a good idea. It's
already out. Wait for 6.1 and use that plus some polish to the Notebookbar
modules to make a big splash in the 6.1 release and use the extra time to
really polish the icon set if it's going to be used by default.
