--- Comment #25 from Jens Petersen <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Nicolas Mailhot from comment #24) > No, because bpg-dejavu-sans-fonts is not a complete fork of dejavu, it is > missing other parts. > > Also, bpg-dejavu-sans-fonts is quite shaky legal-wise, the Georgian dev is > completely clueless about licensing, I’m not sure its GPL use is compatible > with the licensing in the other parts of dejavu, and even if it is, there > are good reason we are not using the GPL for font files (it would make > documents, that embed font parts, such as ODF or PDF, GPL, which is > definitely not what our users need). Sounds like Noto Georgian may be a better bet then. Not to mention the BPG family names typos. > We really need someone to revive the upstream dejavu project and restart > merging fixes and enhancements, since the original authors lost the drive. That would be great indeed. > (Can’t really blame them when downstreams like Fedora Workstation removed > DejaVu as default font just because it was steady and “boring”). That is not completely accurate, Dejavu is still default, just not for Gnome UI chrome. (And that was encouraged by Gnome, not particularly Fedora Workstation.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
