Season's Greetings!

My team is currently working on migrating some of our (mostly Desktop & 
Swing-based) applications from OracleJDK 8 to OpenJDK 11 and we have discovered 
that Lucida fonts are not distributed with OpenJDK.

This and other font changes are discussed in the chain here:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/discuss/2017-November/004629.html

Does anyone have any further advice on how best to enable our customers to 
continue to use these fonts?
Is it feasible for us to obtain an OEM license to ship the fonts (as Oracle 
presumably did with OracleJDK 10 and earlier)?
Or does anyone know of an open source alternative that is close enough to the 
fonts previously shipped with OracleJDK?
Or will our customers have to license the fonts themselves in order to use them 
in our future releases?

Based on initial research, I had found the following site which appears to 
license the fonts for individuals, sites or OEMs:
https://tug.org/store/lucida/index.html
Can anyone confirm that this is the correct point of contact regarding the 
Lucida fonts?

Jayan
