One more pirated font they should cut off the French anti piracy
agency's internet access...
And if they want internet access after that, we can install
spyware... ;)

think you still live in .nl, but I don't know your rate... ;)
So, would something like 2 to 3 euro be a realistic price for a
*good* quality latin text font, including kerning, support for
accented characters, etc.? Or more like 50k or even 100k euro?

probably just depend on
proprietary components (ie they took the easy short road as usual

Or maybe the code isn't really useful outside their current setup.
But really, I think they just want to make some money (Canonical is
still working at a loss...).

Or yet another option: release a (partial) font (family) under a less
free license and promise to release the complete font (family) under the
OFL if you are given a certain amount of money (remember how Blender got
free?).
