Re: New proposed Ubuntu startup and Shutdown sounds.
Hello all, I'm not too fond on those sounds either but this could be the beginning of being possible to customize sounds and alerts in a more detailed manner. I'm guessing this could increase the ISO size as it would need to have a sound base to go along... Thoughts?

Hey Siddharth, thanks for your contribution. I guess the Ubuntu-desktop mailing list is more appropriate for this, while some input from design would be needed too.

This needed/still needs: 1. development of libre tool chains (== work usable by all fonts...) 2. building the UFF fonts purely from source, using that toolchain 3. pragmatically proving non-regression with existing binary-only hand-built versions out there (as a precondition to switch-over) For (1), there as been lots of work of libre toolchains in the last 18 months, via Dalton Maag and latterly a large push backed by the Google Fonts team to make generic libre font toolchains, that are freely usable by all. For (2), there is an early test version **not ready for release** of a open toolchain buildable 'Ubuntu' at: https://github.com/daltonmaag/ubuntu Using a new-two feedback mechanism this branch was used to test and create further required toolchain features---ultimately for the benefit of all free/libre fonts. (Please resist distributing builds from this until it is known to be at the point of provable non-regression); For (3): Proof of non-regression. The Ubuntu Font Family is widely used all over the place (including huge numbers of websites and from within Google Docs). This means there is an additional responsibility to prove *non-regression* between the "new" automated-build-form- source-development branch, against the prior binaries built by hand. This type of testing requires tooling---Google Fonts has been working on automated regression testing, which should help with this. -*- -*- -*- Yes it is taking a long time, but the world of libre fonts progressed a lot in the last five years. Once all of this pieces come together, our collective dream can be fulfilled too. Until this it is a work in progress, -Paul -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Re: Can a signed hash be added to font.ubuntu.com?

If anyone (including yourself) would like to help with the reverse-engineering, or a clean-room implementation of suitable signing + certificate code; then: https://github.com/sladen/fontsign is one of the places this is being explored at. This should ultimately benefit *all* free/libre fonts by opening up the possibility of allowing the signing block to be used as designed with only open tools. -Paul -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Can a signed hash be added to font.ubuntu.com?
http://font.ubuntu.com/ is offered to the world for downloading Ubuntu font. But sadly, zero security is provided for those choosing to download the font. Not only is the domain not secured with https, but I can find no signed hash authenticating that I'm downloading what Ubuntu intends. Can Canonical please do something about this ASAP? Canonical should be invested in protecting visitors to its site, especially when offering things to download. Please use the Ubuntu signing key to sign a hash of the font, authenticating its integrity. People should be able to download a signed file for authentication when downloading the fonts. I would have filed a bug on this on Lauchpad but I can find no way to file a bug without indicating a specific package to file against. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Ubuntu font in debian repository
Ubuntu font is apparently not included in Debian repository because it requires proprietary software to build the font from source (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=603157). Is this necessary? Can a change be made so that Ubuntu font can be included in Debian's repository? -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
