Then I would like to propose to move the integration of the new icons to 4.1. That gives us enough time to select the best icon proposal, make the necessary changes, and integrate them into AOO. All this takes time and should not be done under time pressure I personally like Kevin's icons a bit better. Cleaner and simpler. But Samer's icons are also nice. Maybe we can get a mix of both? Some observations: Kevin's icon for Calc (the green one) and Samer's icon for master documents (or templates?, the blue one on the top left) look like older MS windows icons to me. Samer's icon for Math: I would prefer an upright (not oblique or cursive). The oblique (cursive) variant looks somehow a little strange to me.
