Re: Potential availability of new fonts, Stix fonts
This really isn't the right place for licensing concerns. It might be best to forward this to Jim Gettys, but I don't have a current email address for him- do any of the lurkers here have that?

The font has glyphs (characters) for Latin Basic, Latin Extended A and B, Cyrillic and Greek, making it quite valuable if it could be open-source/freedom software. They just announced a draft distribution license of the fonts, that roughly resembles the license of Bitstream Vera, with caveats. See http://www.stixfonts.org/user_license.html At the same page you can send comments on the license. A write-up is available at http://www.livejournal.com/users/simosx/2764.html I tried to get debian-legal to give some concrete direction http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2005/09/msg4.html If you can chip in and make sure the license is properly free, it would be good for the community.

So I asked to get a booth for GNOME, and would like to have permission de represent and promote the GNOME project on behalf of the GNOME Foundation during the show, and of course help. The space on the show is free of charge, and being in Montreal I volunteer to take care of the organization, with helps of other GNOME fellows. Hub, is there any specific help you need? I know the gnome-fr folks have some francophone marketing materials they could maybe point you at.

Bookmarks not so easy to share
Hi all, On behalf of the Epiphany developers I'd like to request that the feature item Bookmarks can be easily shared over the network. is left out of the release notes, as it's a bit overly optimistic and not quite accurate. The problem is that this feature needs a zeroconf-enabled gnome-vfs and this is not enabled by default because of some license issue. Even if you have that, it takes a bit of hand-work to get the bookmark sharing feature to actually share bookmarks over the local network. Sorry for the inconvenience caused, but it's better not to promise something and not deliver on it. regards, -- Reinout van Schouwen -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
GNOME liveCD 2.12 help needed
The liveCD is up for testing, please give it a ride/thorough test and post your feedback to the list :-) Download it here: http://www.gnoppix.org/download/gnome-livecd-2.12-i386-en-1.iso And a quick translation is needed - ASCII only. If that makes no sense in some languages we should leave it in english. -8-- To start the live CD just press ENTER. In case that the boot process is not successful you can get further advice by pressing [F1] -8-- en, fr and de are already there. We urgently need es, br and it. All other languages welcome - but no promise that we get liveCDs in every language this time.
