Not enough inventiveness. Mostly it's just recoloring and simplification of our existing set.

Pros:
Grouping similar tasks by color is a nice touch...

Cons:

Pros:
User gave us icons at right sizes (according to attached preview image).
Almost pixel-perfect.
Clean and simple.

Cons:
I'm concerned about using pure black and too dark grays for such vital parts of icons. On dark themes those will disappear.
Not enough inventiveness. Mostly it's just recoloring and simplification of our existing set.

Not sure what to think, yet. It's all too fuzzy for me.


New Proposal

After analyzing the current Icons in Scribus, this is my result:
- We have about 150 Icons
- If we are doing new icons for all of them, this will take two to four weeks of work.
- I do not know, if those three guys are aware of this.
- The Tango Icons do not fit too well for us.
- But the ones from Inkscape do.

Could we just use the Inkscape-Icons, and add the ones we need in the same style?
