Nowadays, this LibreOffice theme is unmaintained, highly incomplete, and visually obsolete. The Shimmer Project (known for Xubuntu and the Numix GTK+ theme) is creating an updated icon theme, based on Human, but including the newest elementary icons as well as creating original new ones. @Michael: I added you to the CC list because of a licensing question: Simon, one of the Shimmer Project developers, asked me if it is necessary to put together a list of the individual icons and their license (à la icon-themes/human/CopyrightsHuman).

Then again - if you're going to do the work - its good to poke Andras with the changes to the license language you want. Of course - crediting the authors of the icons is best done by people committing them to git and getting credited in our credit page - that's something we're enthusiastic about =) Does that help ? either way upgrading Human sounds sensible to me if people want to work on that. Thanks !

I believe Ubuntu uses the human theme as its default icon theme for its unity desktop, so it maybe important to them to keep that consistency. CCing Bjoern for his thoughts. During my work on tango, i have copied a few of human icons into tango that looked suitable, when tango was falling back on industrial or galaxy. Human should really be falling back on tango rather than industrial with the amount of improvements that are going into tango.

Right. I would really not enjoy killing the Human theme, as likely it would just mean that I would need to carry it as a cumbersome vendor patch anyway, just creating lots of pointless work along the way. What is the point/goal of this anyway? The human theme can be turned off by a configure switch and IIRC isnt even enabled by default. If the goal is to make Ubuntu ship a different default, this certainly isnt the way towards that goal (see above). If you want a different default in Ubuntu, the way to go about that is filing a request on launchpad at Ubuntu and get that nodded of by Ubuntus design team. (As a general note this bug doesnt seem to be too well scoped: it describes no clear goal and mixes too many things: removing themes, adding themes, changing defaults with the latter being off-topic here beyond TDF builds.)

I’m dropping the Human theme from this to make you more comfortable.
