I very much see the need to have a headline Fedora font which can be freely distributed and improved. In fact, this need drove me to create 5th Leg* for openSUSE to replace the awesome Cholla which sadly didn't have a very permissive license. But just like openSUSE didn't have to have the actual logo recreated based on the new type, I don't think Fedora needs to do so either. I really hope Johan will be willing to relicense Comfortaa, it would be quite a time saver. I would love to work on making this work better as a screen font as well (in terms of weight/spacing, not hinting). Fedora would benefit for having this used as a default WM font. * http://jimmac.musichall.cz/log/?p=555 -- Jakub Steiner jstei...@redhat.com http://jimmac.musichall.cz ___ design-team mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
