--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Liberation, Croscore, Croscore-extra fonts have served us well. But as can be
seen  on this Wikipedia listing [1] the FOSS font scape is pretty sparse.
Meaning, users needing specific *commercial* fonts will continue to be on their
own to procure for individual use or depending on business licensing. 

That does not change whether TDF/LO hosts or provides links/extension--which as
has been noted incurs considerable support burden. So not clear there is any
real advantage to this enhancement.

Of more immediate concern for cross-office program interoperability is emergent
need for a metrically equivalent font to the Aptos family as Calibri has been
dropped as default MS Office text font--diluting utility of the croscore-extra
Carlito font the project deploys in addition to the Liberation fonts.
