The last thing I'd like to mention is that we have a package freeze coming
up in a couple of days.  At that point we need to build/check literally
every package in the book.  How much time do you need to do this?  Would it
be batter to put it off until after 7.10?

I've got enough trouble getting to tlmgr-from-source.  If I
move TTF/OTF fonts to a separate page, with a link like e.g. "For
using modern TTF/OTF fonts see 'Selecting TTF and OTF fonts'"
(replacing most of the current text in Xft Font Protocol) then I
won't be adding any new packages.  In fact, either way I'm not
planning to add new packages to the book.

But I'm really lacking time.

OK, let's wait until September then.

With reluctance, yes.  But the link to fireflysung is dead.  I'll
think about rewording that whole part of the page for 7.10.

Apart from the dead link, I would like to drop the ms-fonts link
and instead mention that *some* web pages think everybody uses
windows and that for those it may be best to use fonts with similar
characteristics (e.g. from memory Liberation fonts).

OK, do what you think best.

Alternatively, does anybody here actually install the windows fonts?

Not me.
