PLEASE let's not start the should we/shouldn't we debate again.
I just thought this was interesting. Since there was some worry going
on about the legalities and ethics of Ben's MS font bootstrap RPM, here
is a way to better understand the situation. Some guy has gone and made
a REAL rpm of all the MS fonts, including Tahoma and Veranda and all,
and he's distributing it on own site. The announcement is at freshmeat.

I haven't tried it. His site is SERIOUSLY freshmeated. hehe
I'm sure Ben's is better because it's Mandrake specific, but it will be
very interesting to see if this new rpm lasts. Maybe we will gain some
insight on MS's true feelings on the subject.
