I'll just chip in that The League of Moveable Type<http://theleagueofmoveabletype.com/>is run by a friend of mine, Micah Rich <https://twitter.com/micahbrich>, who is a stand up guy with stand up ideas. He's been working on the League for 4 years now, despite the much higher resistance/apathy in the font world (compared to the code world). It's well worth supporting <http://theleagueofmoveabletype.com/join>, even if you don't use any fonts of theirs right now.
