Whoo hoo!

I think I found a great free alternative to the Futura font used by
Kishor and Christian:

Luz Sans font, also known as HP New Futura, is the corporate typeface
of Hewlett-Packard. It is a professional font (duh) that highly
resembles Futura. You can see what it looks like here:

Here you can see the original "pdl>" from P.Kishor and below it my
rendition using LuzSans. Personally I like the ">" from LuzSans
better. Except for Kishor's logo, all the text on this page is in
LuzSans, so you can get a feel for what the font is like.

As for the license, I've read that it is in the public domain, but I'd
like to confirm that. What I can say for sure is that Canonical
distributes it as a free font, and they packaged it themselves:

What do you think?

Daniel.
