It seemed discussion had petered out.

In the days before the launch there were seven replies.  Of these,
three were positive and four were neutral.  Not one negative comment
or objection.  (From just TUs: 1 positive, 2 neutral, 0 negative.)
All advice given in the neutral comments was applied.  Tone of the
message was greatly lightened in the case of icons.  Silly workarounds
like base64 were removed.  No one commented on the number or choice of
packages in the lists attached to the original post.

I will look for stronger consensus in the future.

I'm just glad you are taking the time to write them.
