Sigh... I don't see how such offensive discourse is useful to anyone. IMHO you can voice your opinion without turning everything into a flamewar... It's not a us vs. them. There are foundries out there doing open fonts or paid to do open fonts. I'd distance myself from such a agressive discourse. I personnally am not out to destroy any foundry. If designers and foundry see the benefit in a more open licensing and collaborative approach it's great. But if they don't no mob should lynch them. I can see various people from this list have joined in the discussion... BTW, if you know of more feeds to add to our planet, let me know. -- Nicolas Spalinger, NRSI volunteer Debian/Ubuntu font teams / OpenFontLibrary http://planet.open-fonts.org
