No you're entirely right, this is the kind of ambiguity we need to filter out in a friendly manner to keep our quality focus. The various combinations have very different effects. The FSF also indicates directly on their license-lists that this is a crucial issue: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html#which-cc But on this font author's page there are two links to http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/de/ only attribution (and German jurisdiction). BTW, the name reminds me of Dennis's Vollkornnudeln font: http://home.sus.mcgill.ca/~moyogo/fonts/Vollkornnudeln.ttf > Best - Ed -- Nicolas Spalinger, NRSI volunteer Debian/Ubuntu font teams / OpenFontLibrary http://planet.open-fonts.org
