So what? It's a mailman list. It won't eat you. I neither take part in
Debian development nor use it at all. That never stopped me from adding
input in the Debian bugtracker or using its lists when appropriate.

Liberation is a Red Hat/Fedora project. If you want to communicate with
the people managing it you have to use  Red Hat/Fedora channels. What's
so freaking difficult about it?

Please post questions on Liberation on the fedora fonts list. Caius
Chance is subscribed there, not here, and I can't just ferry messages
back and forth manually for long.

Re: [Openfontlibrary] [Fwd: Updates of liberation-fonts.]

2008-05-07 Thread Gustavo Ferreira
hello,

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=45785

reading the changelog in the link above, it seems like there were  
only small changes in some metainfo fields, and no changes in the  
design (except for alignement mismatch dot accents) -- is that right?

also: was the license updated to plain GPL+font exception, without  
the polemic extra clauses under which the first release came out?

and finally: is there a zip with the current ttf versions of the  
fonts somewhere?

thanks,
- gustavo.

 Hi,

 This is Caius Chance who is the package maintainer from Red Hat. I am
 writing for the recent updates of Liberation Fonts:

 - The latest stable version is liberation-fonts-1.03-1.fc9
 http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=45785 .

 - The font tarball had been hosted on
 https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/. It is in trunk towards
 version 1.04.

 - The source on fh.o is still in progress of conversion. We are  
 quality
 checking to see if the generated TTFs from SFDs (which generated from
 initial TTFs of original manufacturer) are the same.

 ref: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444392

 Best Regards,
 Caius.

 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

So the ultimate source of the (sfd) source for the new TTFs will be
the original TTFs.
