Just that we have Information field in "name" table (& I deeply regret that most of fonts does not provide info here) where README content would fit well. Plus, installing fonts is not a per font process, so I continue to think that documenting it once on the web site would be enough. > If you want FLOSS fonts to spread they *must* abide with the > conventions distributors are comfortable with. "spread"? For myself I just want FLOSS fonts to be good.
