That doesn't sound right, how can they have other designers contribute then? Maybe that's just a placeholder project for now?

Speaking of the plugin, I don't know how hard it really is to develop one and what KDE needs, I can only guess they went with Figma because the available designers are most familiar with it rather than Inkscape, though I also noticed from that readme that this plugin should support Penpot as well, so they're probably leaving it up as future possibility to shift to that

🤷 I merely searched for Jetpack on KDE Invent.

Building a complete Plasma desktop with icons and such should not depend on any proprietary software for reasons KDE's own Vision document states. If people want to make a 3rd party icon set hosted on GitHub or wherever, fine, but IMO the building blocks of "core" KDE software should be 100% FOSS.
