[ubuntu-art] [Breathe] Additions to "Categories"

[Jeremy JT. Taylor]

>Icons are used to express ideas, actions, and they should be

everyone and no one new to >Linux will know that the program they want

wondering why it's a wine glass.

The issue isn't really with recognition. The issue as Cory has stated is
that the Developers/designers of wine, have made the decision to
represent their solution with a wine glass.  We wouldn't want to
redesign their logo for them. If Firefox extensions had their own
category we wouldn't want to redesign the Firefox logo either, it would
be some representation similar to the current Firefox branded logo.

 

Thanks
