The current icon is in SVN for the Accessiblity Guide, but the place where it once was included in the XML is commented out. I'm not sure what the status is. Vincent Alexander has been doing a lot of work on the AG. I've CC'd him. Vincent, how are things with the AG? Is the version in trunk suitable for 2.24.0? The deadline is September 22. Will you be reusing any of the commented-out material in mobility.xml? If not, we should remove it, as it wastes space. We always have SVN history. More importantly (for this email), will you be using the accessx.png icon that's currently in SVN? I don't see a huge problem with this change. although I'm just a bit concerned that a common icon like this will have been included in other screenshots I'm not aware of. The icon in the AG is just the icon, not the icon embedded in a screenshot. This means it would be easy for us to swap the new icon in. Questions: Would this icon be used everywhere I currently see the current square-with-wheelchair icon, or do we have tools including their own version or something? Also (and this isn't really a documentation-related thing), isn't the wheelchair insignia universally recognized for this? Is it really a good idea to switch to something that doesn't have a clear link to accessibility? -- Shaun _______________________________________________ gnome-themes-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-themes-list
