I've added the other character sets (dozens of new characters) including the Ireland themed characters designed especially for the MeeGo conference to the style guide: http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Style_Guide#Characters

Hi there
We commissioned a special agency out of London called airside to design the characters. You may remember them from the lovely moblin characters they also designed:
