It's not just that they are a simple set of icons, they reflect the style and brand standards of Red Hat as a company and the trust we've built up over the years, so they fall into a bit of a gray area, particularly given historical attitudes in our community around such assets (remember Iceweasel, anyone?) I am guessing that we probably could have released them under a restrictive license that would force users to either violate the license or have legalese on their diagrams/slide decks that used them - I don't think that's a good idea.
I'm not super embarrassed, given this history, that this library of in-house designed and created icon assets that are closely tied to Red Hat's corporate brand has involved several layers of OKs and approvals before we could release them to you. That was in 2006 and here we are over 10 years later still doing it. We were one of the first open source communities to do that.
We opened up the brand guidelines and styling for Fedora. I remember being told that open development and even open licensing was "for kernel developers, not designers." Not too long after that we started the Fedora Design Team and started creating Fedora's art assets out in the open with the community following a public process using open licenses, using open source tools. So when I started at Red Hat as a UX designer back in 2004, the general attitude the open source community had towards design assets and design in general is that it couldn't be done in the open.

ICONSET DOWNLOAD INSTALL
To install you just drop the *.svg files for each library into the 'symbols' dir under ~/.config/inkscape/symbols (or wherever the inkscape config dir might live on your platform of choice.) You may find those libraries useful. I understand if you'd rather not switch tools, but in case that is a possibility for you - xaviju, an Inkscape development community member, has put together a github repo of multiple symbol sets for Inkscape including the icons from FontAwesome and Google Material Icons: I use Linux as my platform so I'm not able to run Visio and create stencils for it however I do use Inkscape and as of late Inkscape has a 'symbol library' feature where you can load in icon sets and drag them on canvas which is very helpful for diagramming. I will follow up with you when I hear back. I'm not sure, because I think they are considered Red Hat brand assets and not openly licensed, so it may not be possible to release the sources publicly. I just emailed the design lead for the iconset used in the diagram you linked to () to ask her about whether or not we can make those sources available for diagramming. You will now find your new custom icons under the ‘Custom Icons’ area, where you’ll see your icon set name, icons number indicator and your unique CSS Prefix for each icon set.I'm a UX designer with the Fedora engineering team and the maintainer of Bluecurve (the dated icons already mentioned.) Bluecurve and its sources are available via git here:.Give your font a unique CSS Class Prefix.To import click ‘ Add More Icons’ in the top menu bar.Select some icons or alternatively import your own.
