As promised, icons are now done. You may now use them knowing that they're pixel-perfectly composed within 24 x 24px canvas. 

Great, can you update  https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design/WikiFont ?

How can third-party MediaWiki developers use these?  The ResourceLoaderImageModule hinted at in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design/WikiFont#Future_plans is merged, but seems undocumented.

I assume OOjs UI will be able to use any of these icons in a button, e.g. http://living-style-guide.wmflabs.org/wiki/OOjs_UI/Widgets/Buttons_and_Switches . OOjs UI's list of semantic names is at https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/oojs%2Fui.git/HEAD/src%2Fthemes%2Fmediawiki%2Fimages.json#L26 , but as I commented in the earlier "Icon SVGs needed" thread, ideally we would have a table of the icon file names together with Jon's visual and semantic description and their Unicode code points (as I understand it the mobile apps still use the WikiIcon font).

Also in that thread, Jon suggested

I think we need a single repository with all the icons in it. On the
long term I expect we can just use OOJS but in the meantime I would
recommend we should be working from the same place and using a git
submodule to pull these icons in.

which still seems a good idea. If that had a JSON file of the icon names and information we could generate an on-wiki table with the SVGs in it.
