Several of us have been making an effort to bring together the projects and people who feed sprites into the official plantuml-stdlib.

We've been doing this under https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/, with the go-ahead of Arnaud Roques (creator of PlantUML)

This ticket is to ask whether you would be interested in joining that effort and/or migrating this project to the PlantUML-StdLib organization.

The main reason for asking is to see if, by joining forces, we can make sure that any sprites already added to the official plantuml-stdlib remain maintained.

Of course, the same question also applies to https://github.com/rabelenda/gilbarbara-plantuml-sprites/

So, what do you think?

It would be nice if we could add the Akka logo as part of this library.

It would be nice if we could add the Kotlin logo as part of this library.
Is the only thing needed a version of the Kotlin logo as a black and white png?
Any other requirements to be aware of?

Many thanks for your contribution!
If you are ok with the idea, we would like to include your library into the standard distribution of PlantUML.
(so in https://github.com/plantuml/plantuml/tree/master/stdlib like we have done for milo-minderbinder/AWS-PlantUML#20 )

That way, people would be able to use it out-of-the box with the following syntax:

@startuml
!include <sprite/tomcat>
!include <sprite/kafka>
!include <sprite/java>
!include <sprite/cassandra>

title Cloudinsight sprites example

skinparam monochrome true

rectangle "<$tomcat>\nwebapp" as webapp
queue "<$kafka>" as kafka
rectangle "<$java>\ndaemon" as daemon
database "<$cassandra>" as cassandra

webapp -> kafka
kafka -> daemon
daemon --> cassandra

Your repository would still be the official source for this library: we would just duplicate files into our repository.

What do you think about it ?

Is it possible to add Hive icon to sprites list? Thanks.
