The only problem I see is, that the copyright-info seems to have been missing. About anything else: Marketing is different in a free software world. You can't expect people not to want to have somethign which is fresh. And if it's public, they will get it at some time.

Sorry, KDE people, you can talk all you want about free artwork for free software, but I can't hear your words over the sound of your actions. …and now the theme has been pulled from gnome-look.org.

If you don't like people using your work then change the license and take it off a publicly available Internet server. Otherwise, stop whining. Besides, considering how long these icons have been under development you'd think they'd look better. From what I've seen, Everardo's new "Crystal Project" icons are vastly superior. They would be a much better default theme in KDE4. The Oxygen Folder icons look like a thousand other "plastic-like" icon themes out there. They are soooo 2001. I don't know why there's so much excitement over Oxygen. They really arent that different (or better) than anything out there now. Your “requests” violate the spirit and intent of the licenses you chose for the project.
