It's certainly worth asking the Liberation maintainer.
However bear in mind Red Hat's main motivation was to have TNR/Arial
metrically equivallent substitutes (that worked in OO.o, ie in TTF not
OTF format) so they may well not be interested.

Which does not mean Fedora isn't. If the font is suitably licensed I'll
certainly add it to our packaging wishlist.

(sadly that does not take care of finding people to work on this list)
