Generic Tango icons in Oxygen:

 krfb        -> preferences-desktop-remote-desktop

Other application icons:

Most other application icons should go to their home modules instead of residing in kdelibs - this not only makes for a better overview but also reduces disk space in case not all modules are installed. And, of course, prevents icons being misused for wrong usages.

 acroread                      ?? needs a spec type name for fallback

 * suggesting this for inclusion into the icon naming specification
 ** not in the spec, but let's keep it out of there anyways,
    it's not really suited to be a standard icon

To do for Oxygen

Icons that are in the spec, but not yet in Oxygen's apps/ (after renaming) so they need to be added. Descriptions taken from the specification.

 preferences-desktop-font
   The icon used for the desktop's font preferences.

 preferences-desktop-multimedia
   The icon used for the desktop's multimedia preferences.

 preferences-desktop-screensaver
   The icon used for the desktop's screen saving preferences.

 preferences-desktop-theme
   The icon used for the desktop's theme preferences.

 system-file-manager
   The icon used for the desktop's file management application.

 system-software-update
   The icon used for the desktop's software updating application.

Icons in Tango, but not in the spec

We don't need to have those, but if we do they should be named this way:

 internet-group-chat
   For a possible generic instant messager icon.
   *Very* optional though, as we already have branded
   Kopete and Konversation icons.

 internet-mail
   We already have this from the previous "kmail" icon.

 internet-news-reader
   Instead of "knode".

 internet-web-browser
   For a possible generic browser icon. *Very* optional though,
   as we already have a branded Konqueror icon.

 office-calendar
   We already have this from the previous "korganizer" icon.

 preferences-desktop-assistive-technology
   Tango does this as preferences-desktop-accessibility
   plus an emblem-style gear icon at the lower right.
   Hardly necessary to have.

 preferences-desktop-sound
   Go Phonon go.

 preferences-system-network-proxy
   We do have proxy settings in KDE 3, this might make sense.

 preferences-system-session
 preferences-system-windows
   I really don't get why those are "system" items, those are
   quite obviously desktop items, right? Well, whatever.
   We already have the latter one from the previous "kwin" icon.

 system-installer
   Adept, Yast, Pirut, Smart, or whatever else is out there.

 system-users
   Seems to fit KUser or Guidance's "User Management" module.
