The single priority I have for openfontlibrary is:
 
Creating a new openfontlibrary without any copyleft fonts. (and  banning any 
new ones from appearing)
 
Initially, Openfontlibrary was created as a place for fonts dedicated to  the 
Public Domain. Things dedicated to the public domain are not copyleft.  
Copycenter licenses such as the BSD license, the MIT license, etc would also 
not  
be copyleft.
 
I'm mostly afraid openfontlibrary is moving in the direction of becoming  the 
(however small) sourceforge of fonts. (Sourceforge is a popular open source  
software website featuring mostly copyleft software.)
 
If anyone would suggest the best way to make this happen, I'm all  ears...
 
Remember, I own the openfontlibrary.com and .net domains, the non-copyleft  
version of openfontlibrary could go there. I started talking privately with  
(rejon) about this idea last year, but that never really went anywhere.
 
I understand the majority (but not all) of the people involved with this  
project are pro-copyleft, but I really want to have a non-copyleft  
openfontlibrary.
