Hi guys, some days ago, i found a Ying Yang icon that is being used as Symbolic icon theme [0]. Since it is part of concept of Chinese folk religion [1], in my opinion it lacks of neutrality. So, i've posted a report about it to bugzilla [2]. In the middle of the discussion, i've put that use a heraldic shield (proposal of liam [3]) could be a good idea; however, i didn't paid attention that a heraldic shield represents a imperialist symbol [4] that is opposite of my principles, sorry about that :( I've been thinking a lot about a solution for it, then it popped into my head... "why don't create a new one based on classic GIMP theme? [5]" It could be proposed as an idea for Klaus that, as Jehan says [6], "he is kind of the de-facto icon boss for the time being. :-)", however i think is better open a consensus to encourage community participation to make a appropriate logo for it and help him too. What do you think guys?
