Unless something changed, the About dialog does a bitwise compare of the images and does not present multiple of the same image. So if your feature, regardless of provider string, uses the standard eclipse icon, it should not show up separately.

Given Dave’s requirement that every (sub) project specifies their own provider name, we’ll be getting 50-100 IDENTICAL feature icons in the about dialog if each project uses the Eclipse.org icon. Unless we change the about dialog code, which might be what we should do (ie grouping identical icon names even if the provider name differs).

If every project had its own icon then the various EPP packages and product configurations would have 50-100 different feature icons and it starts loosing its value/meaning. Despite each project feeling it is special/central, to the end users more often our stuff is just "Eclipse". Jeff On 2011-03-17, at 10:51 AM, David M Williams wrote:
No, no standard icon. You are free to create your own, or, I'd suggest, use the "standard" Eclipse one, if you don't have your own. As for Provider name, it should not be "Eclipse.org" (for anyone). It should be "Eclipse <project name>" ... or, for those in "Tools" TLP, you could say "Eclipse <sub project name>".
