Seems too little time for Fedora 7 to adopt Echo.
Let's do our best to complete some of them. Less talk, more action.
Afterall, Tango got included by default on GNOME even though the entire set was
not finished. Let's focus on essential icons.

Yes, it does seem like a daunting task and with Matthias's numbers it
might seem even more overwhelming. However, these numbers answer such
questions as: what is the current Echo status, which icons are needed
for a "complete" set, and what needs to be worked on. From the numbers
it is clear that Echo's inclusion in the FC7's development cycle is for
encouragement and feedback...that a final decision have not been made.
What is a complete set...or complete enough set...to be included? There
are three major types of icon work to be done:
1) creating the obvious missing icons from the list (Many of the bits
already exist in creating missing icons.)
2) creating the missing size variations of existing icons (Requires time
in resizing and possibly simplifying the existing icons to look its best
in smaller sizes).
3) fine-tuning (fixing) existing icons from bug reports.
By focusing on these types of work, the numbers of missing icons will
start to decrease and a reasonable set could possibly emerge in time for
FC7. These should be the current focus instead of 22x22 versions or KDE
forks. As the set becomes more complete, specific sizes and versions
could be created.
Luya and Ben have been continuing Echo icon work and I will joining
their efforts by resuming icon creation starting next week. My personal
plan is to start with modifications to the Mail Icons [1] and arrow
icons. Then based on Matthias's list, I will start to fill in the
missing pieces.
In the meantime, I've posted an Echo Guide on the wiki [2] for any that
might be interested. I do plan to provide examples under the "Echo
Icons in Grids" section at a later date.
