Hello Jean
The Galaxy icon set does look better and the pictograms used do follow other icon sets fairly closely. Best example is for Bold, Italic and Underline - nearly the same as MS Office - and have been used for a very long time. Even Apple programs uses B, I and U.
However, we have to think of the users. The default set when you install LO is the Tango icon set. Also, most Linux distributions that include LO use the Tango set, Ubuntu is the best example I can think of. The majority of users will probably NOT change the icon for LO to Galaxy, so it would be better to continue with Tango so the user guides match the default LO installation. This would make it easier for users, even if there is a dislike for Tango amongst the LO docs team.
Another solution to think about. Is it possible to get the default LO installation to automatically use the Galaxy icon set? It would also mean getting the Linux distributions who include LO to use the Galaxy set.
