Bug Description
This bug doesn't actually affect Ubuntu artwork directly, but since it is relevant to the artwork of many applications shipped with Ubuntu I felt this was the most logical place. Please move if inapropriate.
Even with the transition to Tango, there are many places in Ubuntu where dated Industrial icons are in use when high quality Tango replacements are available. Unless there are specific reasons to keep the current icons, I feel Edgy should move towards the Tango goal of a unified desktop. A fresh and complete new look also fits in with the idea of an 'edgy' release.
Applications that could benefit from Tango icon sinclude Gaim, OpenOffice, the Gimp, Firefox, the Terminal Server Client, GConf-Editor and the CPU Scaling Applet. Others not included by default also exist.
A poll held in the ubuntu forums resulted in a 90% majority in favour of the idea: http://

Maybe a meta package something like total-tango-desktop that installs tango goodness.....
