Yes, however, if following the meritocratic style of the LibreOffice 
project, you have, in my most honest opinion, merit to do this. You have 
a proven track record of working within the confines of the agreed 
guidelines and you have proven yourself, clearly, as an asset to the 
project. Having any kind of vetting process is to make sure that people, 
who have not as yet merit with the project, have a validation process to 
give merit to the their work. Nothing wrong with voluntarily passing 
items for review, but I would imagine, that if these people have not as 
yet reached merit within the group, that a validation process should be 
followed. I happen to like the process under which we are working at 
this point.

This was the point in putting up a temporary warning note on the wiki 
page until we sort out the licensing stipulations. We need to either 
find a way to conform or, as you suggested, contact them and try to 
negotiate a more friendly use of their icon set if possible. I agree 
that someone from the TDF should be involved in negotiating this.
