    3738Key requirements for the icons include:
    3839 * A compatible license type for use within Boost.
    39  * Provide Icon's that look good! By:
    40    * Using icons that have a consistent theme based on their logical function (eg navigation icons should look similar);
    41    * Using icons that easily convey their function (this is particularly important for the Admonitions icons).

    47 To assist with setting the expectation for this project (ie use existing icons under an open source license or create the icons and license them under the Boost Software License, http://tinyurl.com/2xood5) I have sent an e-mail to the Boost Developers list and the Boost Documentation list seeking feedback on the license type.

    76 '''Navigation Icon requirements''' that various Boost Community members have requested:
    77  *  Currently the preference is to keep the navigation icons green.  This will match the current proposed colour scheme. (See http://tinyurl.com/yrrmgd)
    78  *  Although the Tango Home page icon is not green it was suggested that this would be good to more visually stand out from the arrows. (See http://tinyurl.com/yrrmgd)

    148150 * ''Tango Desktop Project''
    149    *  Note      - It was suggested that the magnifing glass would not be a good choice.  Another option is a Blue circle with the letter i in it.
    150    *  Tip       - The response so far suggests that this is a good icon.  There was the suggestion that it would look better if the light was switched on!
