Reading Mark Shuttleworth's blog about the new Ubuntu identity, he mentions work on the new "Ubuntu" font (the font used in the logo), what catch my eyes was mentioning that it is going to cover Arabic script among others.
Now, this what I call interesting news ;) My question, is this font going to be used in the upcoming 10.4 release? Any idea if there any sample of the Arabic part one can see (I've seen other Dalton Maag Arabic fonts and it looks promising. Funnily, I've been planning for an Arabic font with a similar philosophy, this week I started taking serious steps in this and we are organising a sort of local workshop to discuss ideas and possibilities of such a project. May be Ubuntu will save us the trouble and I then can go and work on other font on my not-so-short list :) Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators
