1. ODF branding is important, but should not lead to weakening of OOo
branding on user's desktops.

2. The OOo document icons are part of our visual identity and therefore
used in several marketing areas. We should not give up this chance as
there might be an alternative (icons with both branding elements).
I remember how annoyed I was when I installed an early beta of Lotus
Symphony and it replaced all my OOo desktop icons with the horribly garish
IBM ones.

As ODF becomes established, users may well have multiple ODF supporting
applications on their desktops. So IMHO having all those applications
sharing a standard set of desktop icons is not terribly useful. Users need
to know what application will start when they click an icon.
The art project is working on icons that include both symbols - ODF as well as another to recognize the application.

There are first drafts only, but there might be a possibility to promote ODF as well as keeping the necessary information about the application.

Best regards

Bernhard
