 * Handling of Sifr 
    + Heiko: "I wonder who is in charge of https://github.com/libodesign as 
      there was a related problem with tdf#106284. Guess it is an abandoned idea."
    + Kendy: "Yeah, the separate git repo did not work out, we ended up working 
      directly in the core.git (which is a plus I think)"
    + Tomaz: "we don't have those icons in core.git"
    + Heiko: "Meaning we have to merge them?"
    + Tomaz: "well there are more things to do - talk about how to store the icons 
      - currently sifr is in big svg sheets (multiple icons per sheet), so ideally 
      they should be 1 icon per svg - same as breeze if designers don't want that 
      OK - we can store those svg sheets too, but we need to start building sifr_svg set 
      which needs to be 1 icon per svg. I'm a bit dissapointed that new sifr icons have 
      been added without svg variant"

    * Moving is simple but maintainer would be needed; put also svg into the repo (Tomaz)
    => Jay, could you get in contact with the author?

 * Make LibreOffice design unique (Thibaut)
   + Right now we adopt the design to the system which has flaws, 
     especially on dark themes https://imgur.com/a/RtFOD
   + Usually programs do have a clear branding so the suggestion is to have 
     one default design and one default icon theme
   + This was likely decided intentionally (Heiko)
   + Issues should be filed as bugs (Tomaz)
   => File an enhancement request and let's run the discussion on Bugzilla (Heiko)

 * Major release update
   + better than hiring a designer we should do the design with an open source community
