    Description: modern icon theme from the Numix project
The Numix icon theme is designed to look fresh, swishy and modern using
white symbols on vividly coloured background for applications and simplistic
devices, toolbars and status icons.

This icon theme will be a dependency of numix-gtk-theme. (MATE's theme
chooser expects a GTK theme to choose a default icon theme for
itself.)

The developers are very active. One difficulty for packaging is that
the developers so far refuse to use releases or tags; they just push
their work to Github. It feels like nearly every distro that packages
this theme has complained about it. [1]

I also intend to package this within the Debian MATE Packaging Team.

Thank you,
