From my side, there is no confusion: this was a separate repo for getting feedback on the updated icon. The finished icon renders were then added to the Pd source repo. I didn't see the need for putting everything in the main repo when the icon is likely not to change for a long time after.

The mime type handling etc should be part of the auto tools set up or some sort of Linux/frteedesktop script in the main repo, probably in the platform specific linux folder with appropriate documentation. If it's a makefile, it could be located there with the needed build rules which are only applied on the needed platform, ie. make mimetype, and would be installed with the other files as needed (if they go into a generic free desktop-y location).

Hi all -

This appears to be a PR to https://github.com/pure-data/pd-icon https://github.com/pure-data/pd-icon - but htere seems to be confusion as to whether this should be part of pure data itself. I think it wound be fine to have it in pure data - but I don't know if I should just grab the files and stick them in pure-data or if that would cause trouble somehow.

cheers M
