My (limited) understanding is Liberation is getting re-hosted from
RedHat to Fedora with the objective to set it up as a normal floss
project, with regular public releases, scripted build-from-source, sfd
sources in a VCS, patch merging, etc.

So the first step is not so much changing the font as switching its
infrastructure so it can be maintained as a community project (like
DejaVu, Lohit, etc)

You can get more answers on the Fedora fonts list
