These icons were massively renamed by Jehan, from a feature branch, in
order to fit either into Freedesktop's "Icon Naming Specification", or
as standard GTK+ icons.
The original file was from the Art Libre icon set:
https://github.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-icons/blob/master/art-libre-symbolic/src/art-libre.svg
Authors are Barbara Muraus and Jakub Steiner (last commit: a738099 from
2013-09-30).
I imported the icons by Klaus Staedtler, and reorganized the file:
- all icons have the proper id from GIMP icon sets.
- tools icons organized in subsections and ordered alphabetically.
- preference icons ordered alphabetically and folder prefs icons
separated.
- unused icons from the original set kept in their own section for
possible future use.
Unfortunately all icons previously provided in png format only are
not present and will have to be redone in vectorial format.
This should make it easier to create new icons by reusing objects and
colors, and keeping design style in-line with existing set.
It also predates the ongoing work on automatic generation of icons by a
script from this single file.
Images originally created by Jakub Steiner and Barbara Muraus as the
"Art Libre" icon set.
The contributor jEsuSdA later worked on it.
It will now be available in the new icon theme selection through
preferences.
Many icons/size are still missing but this first commit makes a start
for complementary work.
