Аз изцяло подкрепям това, което Александър казва - и вече дадох своя (надявам се - положителен) принос.
Не е въпроса дали са 1, 10 или 100. Важен е самият акт, в който една комерсиална организация дарява своят труд в полза на Свободният Софтуер.
А и без съмнение красотата на който и да е от тези комерсиални шрифтове не може да се сравни с безплатните варианти (а и не толкова безплатни понякога) на шрифтовете, които свободно можем да наточим от нет-а.
Бъди здрав,
Д.

Dear Alexander,
Thank you for your kind words. We think this will give
all users and
developers in the Linux community a font solution
right out of the box. I
hope you soon get a chance to use our Bitstream Vera
font family ! Stay
tuned to GNOME to see which version our fonts will be
released in. I
think they will be in GNOME v2.3.
We at Bitstream are trying to work with the GNOME
Foundation to provide
a small set of WGL4 fonts. WGL4 fonts include Cyrillic
characters.
However, this is all in early development right now,
and nothing has been
set in stone. So it would be wrong for me to say, Yes,
we plan to
provide WGL4 character set support, including Cyrillic
support.
Please stay tuned for further developments. Our goal
is to help GNOME
and the open source community as much as possible.
Kind regards,
-Bob Thomas
Bitstream Inc.

Subject: Cyrillic in Free Fonts
Dear Mr. Thomas,
First I would like to thank you for yor wonderful
gift
to
the free software community - the free fonts you are
to
release.
I am in no doubt that they will be of the high
quality
your company has provided up till now.
As I am a developer that takes special interest in
making software work for my country - Bulgaria,
I am very interested whether your fonts will include
the glyphs of temporary Cyrillic alphabet. This is
very important not only to me and may rather small
coutrybut to big countries and the numerous users in
Russia too.
I would very much like a second press release stating
the
included alphabets - Latin, Greek, Cyrillic etc.
Whether they ionclude my aplhabet or not - you still
are making a very big gift.
Thanx a lot.
Best regards:
Alexander Shopov
