> First the CSS layout change:
>  * Title block is slightly narrower. Before, the title could flow
> right up to the icon at the top right before wrapping to the next
> line. That is no longer the case; it now wraps much earlier in the
> line so there isn't so much visual noise up there. This means
> multi-line titles should (hopefully) wrap a bit more elegantly.
>  * Increased spacing between individual lines.
>  * Increased width of content; text is as far from the edge on the
> right as it is on the left side. This appears to nullify the net
> effect of the increased line spacing.
> 
> Then the icons:
>  * The new personalize.png replaces the old accessibility icon. It is
> the "Change wallpaper" icon from the Humanity set. I decided this
> appealed to the idea of personalizing the desktop to fit one's
> personal wishes, where the previous icon provided a rather clinical
> feeling. The dash of aubergine gives the topic a nice jolt of life.
>  * New media.png replacing the Rhythmbox icon. There were a lot of
> comments about the out of place Breathe icon, and it was somewhat
> difficult to align it elegantly. (Rhythmbox icons are all rather
> rectangular, the others we have are square. It looked funny). I went
> with the generic Media category icon from the Humanity set because
> it's one of the more pretty looking icons in that genre by default,
> and it is an icon people will recognize when they open the
> Applications menu.

I understand that there are no string changes and for translators this
is simply a notification of the changes, so I'd say +1 from the
translations side.

Thanks.

Regards,
David.
