Google has released for quite a long time a high-quality set of Droid fonts
as part of the Android platform. They have a high-visibility for average users
because of all the Google press barrage. The-Eula-protected Android SDK has
been superseded lately by a public source repository.

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=data/fonts

The NOTICE file in this directory is a Fedora-friendly Apache License. However
the font metadata embedded in the files claims:

« This font software is the valuable property of Ascender Corporation and/or
its suppliers and its use by you is covered under the terms of a license
agreement. This font software is licensed to you by Ascender Corporation for
your personal or business use on up to five personal computers. You may not use
this font software on more than five personal computers unless you have
obtained a license from Ascender to do so. Except as specifically permitted by
the license, you may not copy this font software.

If you have any questions, please review the license agreement you received
with this font software, and/or contact Ascender Corporation.

Contact Information:
Ascender Corporation
Web http://www.ascendercorp.com/ »

But Ascender will redirect you to Google, which is as usual silent.

To check it,
1. download a raw TTF file
2. open it in Fontforge
3. - Elements
4. - Font Info
5. - TTF Name
6. - License (License URL is fun too)

This has so far discouraged Fedora and Debian packaging, even though wild Droid
packages have started to appear, people are incorporating Droid material in
derivatives, and one of those may eventually make it in the repo without
raising Legal bells.

Thus I have two questions:
1. is the legal situation clear enough to allow Fedora packaging as is
2. since Google won't step down to replying to solicitations by mere mortals,
can an official Fedora or Red Hat enquiry be made to clarify the situation?

86dpi is borderline for good text rendering. Microsoft has been targetting
100dpi for example for at least a decade in windows (reduced to 96 to give
margins to shoddy hardware manufacturers).

If your hardware is really 86dpi (as in actual pixels per inch), there's not
much the best font can do (screens sold to computer gamers have often this kind
of low pixel density but gamers are not known for reading lots of text)

In paper print, for example, standard is 600dpi and 150 is already a
bad-quality magazine.

Low resolution or not, at these sizes there's no reason the autohinter
shouldn't be able to render the tail correctly. It manages to do it with щ just
fine as can be seen on the screenshots.

Which fontforge version? 
This looks like a newer one than rawhide?

output of: 

rpm -q libpng 

rpm -V libpng 

And where can I find the DroidSans.ttf ?

Not sure why you think Google won't step down to replying to solicitations by
mere mortals.
Every query i'm aware of about this situation has been answered (some by me
personally).
If you sent a query that was not answered, please privately provide me details
so i can make sure it doesn't happen again.

In any case, the licensing info embedded on the fonts was simply wrong when it
was pushed out, and is being corrected.
They are licensed under Apache 2.0.
The fixed TTF files should be pushed to GIT soon, if they aren't there already.
