Summary: Merge new characters from Chromium OS core fonts

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637606

           Summary: Merge new characters from Chromium OS core fonts
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: low
         Component: liberation-fonts
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem:
Chromium OS includes new fonts called Arimo, Cousine, and Tinos. These fonts
are, in fact, identical in design to the the Liberation fonts; more accurately,
they're new font files direct from Steve Matteson using the same character
designs as Liberation. However, these fonts include a vastly larger character
set, including such glyphs as Polytonic Greek, Altaic Cyrillic and IPA that
might be useful for certain locales.

The latest revision of the Chromium fonts, as of now, is downloadable here:
http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromeos-localmirror/distfiles/croscorefonts-0.0.4.tar.gz

And the relevant issues from Chromium OS are here:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5287
http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=5941

Would it be possible to work with Google and/or Steve Matteson to get these new
characters merged into the Liberation fonts as well?
