Hi Wade!

Thanks for contacting me for this, I didn't notice that such a 
marathon was approaching.

I forwarded the email the koffice-devel mailing list with my 
suggestions... but since koffice-devel seems to be down atm(? posts 
don't get through) I'm replying you in the name of the KOffice team 
(I'm more or less handling the missing icon job anyway). I'll let you 
know if there are any updates of the information I provide here.


Andrey is working on a couple of icons, you can find what he has done 
so far on:
ftp://ftp.g-system.at/people/raphael/tmp/koffice_icons/
in the respective subfolders named after the KOffice components. 
Acceptable (IMHO) icons from him are so far the KChart icon and the 
Karbon14 suggestion he has made. But all is open of course if other 
artists want to do some, so they can make consistent sets... now... 
let's look at what could be useful for KOffice...


This is what we need:

Some KOffice component icons are a bit inconsistent... if you take a 
look at http://www.koffice.org

We need:

KOffice Logo (important)
KOffice Workspace icon (can be the same as the logo!)
Karbon14 icon
Krita icon
Kugar icon
Kugar-Designer icon
KPlato icon (important)
KFormula icon
KChart icon

Design should be oriented towards KWord, KSpread, KPresenter and Kivio 
icon style so it makes up a complete consistent set.

It is also possible to do a complete KOffice icon set for all 
components! And if someone is interested, it's also possible to do 
every icon in use in KOffice (including all icons inside the 
applications), but that is lower priority. Important is the above 
list (and the following...)

In addition to that we need these in-application icons:

KChart:
All Toolbar icons that are in 
http://webcvs.kde.org/koffice/kchart/toolbar/crystalsvg/
Two such toolbar icons are even missing:
- polar diagram type
- Box & Whisker diagram type
Having a new complete toolbar icon set for KChart would certainly be 
great.


KPlato is missing the following icons:

- Resource use - This view shows the usage statistics of resources 
(resources can be people and material).
- Edit Main Project
- Edit Calendar
- Edit Standard Worktime
- Calculate - I'm not so sure what this does, probably recalculates 
relations between tasks, resources, statistics, etc.

Don't forget that KPlato needs an icon for itself as well!!


The following is needed for Kexi, according to Martin Ellis:

We could do with icons for some of the DBs we can migrate from and/or
use as backend servers - specifically crystalsvg compatible are 
wanted.

This means:
Our own MySQL icon - the licence on the real MySQL logo isn't free 
enough
to be distributed by many distributions, but something free and maybe
dolphin-esque would be cool.

An MDB (as in MS Access) icon - for .mdb files.  We'll be supporting 
import 
very soon now.  MS use a purple key.  KDE already has a mime type.


We could also do with some icons for the Form Editor, we have a list 
on 
http://www.kexi-project.org/wiki/wikiview/index.php?UIDesignIcons
and I have asked Cedric Pasteur to fill in a bit of detail for you on 
this page.

Cheers,
Martin

Raphael
