I'm happy for any free software font to be contributed to OFLB, and then to make the OFLB UI highlight non-best-practice submissions, and the "oflb font set" that Jon has talked about (that we would offer to GNU/Linux distros) would only include the ones following best practices.

These are all free; I think if we get people submitting fonts with those licenses, we will have a point of contact to start a discussion with them about following best practices. If we don't accept their submissions, we might never get that discussion going. > BTW, impressive work on the Jomolhari font :-) +1! :-) > We could use the server I host the planet on for testing.
