This shows that my question about oxygen icons tagging given to kdepim and 
oxygen developers over a weeks ago was quite in place.
So... 

How does release plan for oxygen icons look like?
Stable KDE releases are created by tagging 4.3 branch. Oxygen icons releases 
that accompany KDE stable releases (yes, there will be oxygen-icons-4.3.2, 
right?) are created by:
- tagging kdesupport/oxygen-icons in trunk? (seems reasonable and seems to be 
de facto practice as well, explanation below)
- or using *fixed* kdesupport-for-4.3 tag?

I think those icons were removed exactly because they are now provided by 
trunk oxygen-icons and because they caused file collisions as reported by some 
packagers (like Pierre Schmitz recently and myself two weeks ago) which would 
mean - that 4.3.2 oxygen-icons release tagging follows kdesupport trunk (as 
opposite to being fixed to kdesupport-for-4.3).

What's the desired approach here? Because it seems that what's supposed to be 
the practice (kdesupport-for-4.3 tag) is in fact just a theory.
