[OSM-talk] OSMF Board Election 2013 - candidates wanted

2013-08-12 Thread Frederik Ramm

Dear OSMF members,

(Cc'ing the general talk list in case someone who isn't yet a member 
would like to become one!)


   another Annual General Meeting is looming in early September - the 
formal announcement will be posted on the OSMF lists soon.


In the mean time, could I have your attention for the upcoming board 
election. There's three seats (of a total seven) up for grabs, and I 
hope that some of you will throw your hat into the ring.


If you are a paid-up member of the OSMF by the time of the AGM, you are 
eligible - just add your name to the table on this Wiki page:

If you're not yet a member, all's not lost - go to 
http://www.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Join to sign up today.


Bye
Frederik

As far as I know, mapnik picks a Font on a Glyph-by-Glyph basis, so you
can add as many fonts as you want with unifont being the last one.
Mapnik will then test all specified fonts in the order you supplied for
the required glyph and use the first one it finds.

If none of your fonts does contain the requested glyph, it'll fall back
to unifont, which has it all (but is far from being nice).
