Suede as default gnome icon theme for Hoary

With my icon theme designer hat on ;-)

Etiquette works well with the default gnome theme ( it uses the same
palette & follows the HIG rules of no text , no puns etc )    it is an
attempt at something more modern.

That said .. Etiquette IS the development theme for human ( as far as
i know ) and the only change needed once Etiquette is complete is a
simple palette modification with svgutils to the ubuntu palette.

The style ubuntu-etiquette posted at www.brisgeek.com/etiquette is one
of my own project the icons themselves have always been intended to
port back to the human theme..

Hopefully one day a branding expert will clear this all up .   Until
then,  attached is a sample of ubuntu-etiquette icons
