I am Vidar "blacktar" Andersen and I can't blog. This is my soapbox.
This week I’m attending the first Plone Sprint held in my hometown of Cologne! The aim of the sprint is to focus on completing tasks for the upcoming major release of version 4.0 and even the next incremental version 4.1.
I’m working on the sprint group that is trying to clean up the search interface and make the Plone search experience a little bit better. I think we’re making some progress already – and as always – it’s great fun! :)
If you happen to visit Wikipedia or Wikileaks from time to time, chances are you’ve seen this faceless person sitting on top of the page staring down at you:
However, chances are that you’ve probably never really asked yourself where it comes from. Then again, who in their right mind would?

Funny thing is icon, among others on Wikipedia, is actually from the original icon set of the Plone CMS. Media Wiki later as a true testament to the amazing work of the Plone CSS developer community, shall we say ‘borrowed’ the Plone CSS – and the icons. Then Wikipedia and Wikileaks made use of Media Wiki and the rest is – as they say – history. So now you know.
Funny thing for me is, I actually made this and the original Plone icon set. ;)
Please leave a comment if you have seen other Plone icons in the wild.
