 From my observation, the time remaining until FC5 makes this an 
unrealistic expectation, maybe FC6 can be a reasonable target.

OOo had a big change in the way it work with icons from 1.1.x to 2.x, so 
this is a big work. Also, consider the Bluecurve icon set in OOo 1.1.x 
was completed halfway (only the most used icons), with the rest of the 
icons being GNOME Industrial, this makes me doubt even FC6 as a 
realistic target unless this is identified as a major goal and serious 
efforts are allocated to it.

The good news is that someone inside Red Hat is working on freeing the 
icon sources, which will allow external contributors to participate in 
development (but this is not easy, do not expect something in the near 
future).
