Wikipedia is telling me that OTF are a Microsoft/Adobe creation - is Linux following suit and therefore xorg includes them in its list of fonts?
OpenType (the catchy name for an OTF font) is basically the successor to TrueType, but is in theory an open standard, so its become a pretty popular font set. Xorg just includes, by default, a list of such popular font packages (it also includes FreeType, a couple different dpis, etc.)
