--- Comment #8 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
We should investigate all these icons and replace them with accepted official
branding from their companies:

application-pdf
acoread
im-facebook
im-gadugadu
im-google
im-qq
im-skype
im-twitter
im-yahoo
im-youtube

After that, we should find a way to avoid claiming copyright on them.

...After which point, having icons for these brand logos in the repo itself is
questionable. I wonder if we should just remove them entirely.


Also, these icons are for chat services that are defunct. The functionality
should be dropped and then we can remove the icons:

im-aol
im-icq
im-identi.ca
im-google-talk
im-msn
