It seems Dapper still comes with the ugly Human icons by default instead

Mark was pretty clear on this here:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-art/2006-May/001392.html

I think it is a shame (well, actually, I only really dislike the
folders), but I also think that getting someone to develop an entire
icon theme from scratch, with the sole intention of it being the
Dapper theme and then abandoning it 4 days before release would be
unproductive and harsh! The Tangerine guys have been doing a great job
orangifying Tango, but it was always as an addtional theme and it is
also intrinsically less original than Human...

Tangerine is available, and is the default icon theme for at least one
of the new metathemes :)

The good thing about the Tangerine development was that we can now start sending stuff upstream to GNOME and the developers behind the different applications that have been fixed up. This can't be done with Human, so making stuff original is not always a good thing. Anyway, it's been a fun ride and I hope to be able to pick up the discussion on icons after Dapper has been released. But fow, Mark has made his choice this time and after all, it's his distro.
