The problem is, today in the internet age with blogs and forums anyone
can review anything and say whatever he want. And this is good.
Based on the above comment, I am assuming you are the owner of this
effort. I did not know that. I quickly searched the wiki and the only
*echo* page which displayed your name was *EchoProblem*. If you are not
the owner, who is?
Luya is an important contributor to the theme, many icons list him as
the author: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/EchoDevelopment
The "owner" probably is Diana, who started it and did the largest part
of the existing icons and David who will package the theme.
As I stated before, creating an icon theme IMO is a huge effort.
Information should be flowing on a very regular bases communicating
(listserv, forum, irc) it's status and direction. The owner is the
advocate of the effort and assumes this responsibility.
Yup, here is a lot of work to do: some dealing with people, some marketing
In conclusion, my concern is the number of missing icons I see on the
*echo* wiki page. If the artwork is missing or substituted, a bugzillia
report will not be of much help.
The icons listed on the wiki page are the icons for the base GNOME
desktop (stock icons), they cover only a part of the entire desktop.
There are a lot of GTK/GNOME applications using their own icons and
there are the big applications (Firefox, OpenOffice.org)
However, if *echo* is ready and others agree then let's proceed on.
Any theme would be used, even Tango, it will not have 100% coverage, so
we have to start with something less.
