Specification compliance of icon names

Icon names without trailing stars already exist in the freedesktop.org icon naming specification.

 bookmark                 OK ** (or maybe view-bookmarks? or both?)
 document-multiple        OK ** (KDE 3 name: kmultiple)
 folder                   OK
 folder-remote            OK
 folder-red,
 folder-blue,
 folder-brown,
 folder-cyan,
 folder-green,
 folder-grey,
 folder-orange,
 folder-violet,
 folder-yellow            -> Keep for now, but try to bring up some
                             substitute functionality, like tinting
                             folders by code, or putting the regular
                             folder on a colored background.
 folder-bookmarks,
 folder-development,
 folder-html,                
 folder-image,
 folder-important,
 folder-locked,
 folder-print,
 folder-sound,
 folder-tar,
 folder-txt,
 folder-video             -> svn rm
                             (emulate with folder + emblem overlay)
 link                     -> svn rm (still present in small sizes)
 mail-inbox               OK ** (KDE 3 name: folder_inbox)
 mail-outbox              OK ** (KDE 3 name: folder_outbox)
 mail-message             OK ** (KDE 3 name: mail_generic)
 media-album              ?? (...maybe roll back to
                              media-optical-audio after all?
                              If so, mind to port media-album-repeat.)
                             (KDE 3 origin: cdrom_unmount)
 media-playlist           -> actions/view-media-playlist **
                             (KDE 3 names: player_playlist,
                                           player_playlist_2)
 media-podcast            ?? (mimetypes/x-media-podcast **?)
                             (KDE 3 name: podcast)
 network-workgroup        OK (KDE 3 name: network)
 network-server           OK (KDE 3 name: server)
 network-server-database  OK ** (no corresponding icon in KDE 3)
 start-here               -> start-here-kde **
                             (KDE 3 name: apps/kmenu)
 user-desktop             OK (KDE 3 name: filesystems/desktop)
 user-home                OK (KDE 3 names: folder_home, folder_home2)
 user-identity            OK ** (KDE 3 name: identity)
 user-trash               OK (KDE 3 name: trashcan_empty)

 * 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 places/ (after renaming) so they need to be added. Descriptions taken from the specification.

 start-here
   The icon used by the desktop's main menu for accessing places,
   applications, and other features.
   (Move from apps/oxygen.)

Stuff that needs to be done in the code

  • Replace root folder occurrences (folder-red/folder-root) with drive-harddisk? (Discuss with kde-usability first.)
