Dear OFLib folks, 

Nicolas and I have completed the final adjustments to update 3 of the OFL-FAQ. 
Thanks for all your suggestions and discussions on the draft posted in May - 
they were very helpful. Here is a brief summary of the changes since that first 
draft:

1.1: More description for users regarding what is allowed, mostly to reduce our 
user support burden
1.15: Reminder that even if a font travels inside a doc the authorship and 
licensing should be preserved
1.23: New - about services that deliver fonts to the desktop
1.24: New - about restrictions on fonts delivered by services
3.7: More information on trademark law
3.8: Encouragement to use special names for fonts in development

There were also many small changes of wording here and there, but nothing major.

The main OFL-FAQ page and downloadable files have been updated with the latest 
version:

Note that the paper on Web Fonts and Reserved Font names is still a separate 
document. We had considered rolling it into an appendix to the OFL-FAQ itself, 
but decided (for now) that the two would remain separate. That paper has not 
been recently updated, and remains open for further discussion:

Thanks again for your help in maintaining the OFL model,

Victor Gaultney
