> Am I the only one that thinks that some of the new icons are a step backwards?

No because you can't judge a complete icon set from just two icons. You'll have to see the icons in the right context (e.g. see the full toolbar in konqueror) first. Perhaps that single icon looks like a step backwards, but likely the whole desktop looks cleaner and a step forwards.

Why the oxygen desinger are not giving the credit inkscape deserve?

A simple label in the website like "made using inkscape" would do.

How often do you see "made using gcc" on package info?

Even if credit was needed, are you sure all icons were done with Inkscape? It appears that most were done with Illustrator. And does it really matter, as long as the SVG is available and fully editable?
