Hi folks :)
I've contacted a few font authors whose fonts either don't have an explicit license or have an ambiguous/custom license about considering choosing a Fedora-compatible font license [1].
Hi Máirín,
Thanks a lot for your good advocacy efforts for more open fonts :-)
In case you haven't seen it yet, we've put down a few answers to the what's-in-it-for-me? question from a designer's perspective over on the OpenFontLibrary wiki: http://openfontlibrary.org/wiki/DesignersPerspectiveOpenFonts
And there's always the OFL FAQ: http://scripts.sil.org/OFL-FAQ_web
Might turn out to be helpful in your conversations with upstream designers. We're planning to improve the content of the wiki page and your experience and feedback on all these issues is of course also very welcome :-)
Cheers,
