In order to defuse confusion between Open Font License and the Open
Font Library, I've been promoting "OFLB" as the acronym for the
latter. I hope you'll consider this :-)

Is my recollection that copyright actually expires before US copyright
in canada. I seem to remember that they use to be on par, but that the

I will take your word on it. I am clearly not up to date on this.
Will it detect a PHP file with a .html file if I have enabled PHP
support in .html files?

By "headers" Ed means "the first few bytes of the file". So the "file"

Hi,
Just to add a bookend: ccHost ships with two means of filtering files.
Both are additive - IOW nothing is allowed until explicitly permitted (I
prefer thi, and ccHost is at v5...)
The two methods:
- clever: getID3 (php file identifying lib). Useless to OFLB ATM as
nobody's added and fonts

Why?
If we are not using "copyleft" licenses, what are you proposing to use in place?
The whole reason for copyright law is to provide legal protections to
authors of creative works, is it not?

Could you point me to the page for this script? I would like to read
more about it.
I have joined the development mailing list. Waiting for my fist mail.
One note of concern that I will research. If someone starts with
a .html file and adds php content, then uploads it and renames it

Hi, Brendan,
The PHP getId3() library is at http://getid3.sourceforge.net/. It
might be worth looking into how to expand this library to recognize
the TTF and OTF file headers, perhaps? The idea here seems quite
similar to what the *Nix "file" command does. If someone were to look
at the *nix "

But "public domain" is still a useful shorthand for c

Indeed. May the best project win. Or peaceful coexistence ensue.
Is the name a problem, project identity-wise?

I do foresee general confusion, but I won't argue over that till I'm
