Re: Abiword Tango icon

I had actually already made a Tango icon set and just had not yet
committed it - I have now done so with a preliminary revision. I am
working on integrating a pen into the design to add some meaning to the
icon beyond the brand. (If you look at the Win32 icon for AbiWord,
you'll see my last attempt at doing so a few years ago, before Tango.)
The Swoosh A is actually trademarked, so it is important that I keep to
the trademarked outline to maintain the protection.

Thanks for the offer! If you know about the mechanics of getting
GNOME/KDE to actually use all four icon sizes, that would be greatly
appreciated!
