In our case we link to download locations where we get the fonts and use them locally. If someone wants to file an RFP for those, we're fine with that. I'd even encourage it :) -Jonathan ___ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team

I don't know much about licenses. But, DebConf users will file bugs [0] if we make them pull anything (fonts, css, js, etc) from anywhere else. Which is to say I think we'll need to be able to serve our own copy of whatever we end up using. -Eric [0] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781402 ___ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team

Thanks Allison, that's very useful, I went ahead and added them to the wiki along with their license info and download links: https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf16/Artwork Tammy, I'd also like to add the logos and related artwork files to that wiki page, but I can't find anything in the git repository. There are 2 EPS files that contain the logo but they seem to be low resolution bitmaps. Could you please add the source files to the dc16 git repository when you get a chance? thanks -Jonathan ___ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
