Hello,

I aim to provide the Debian distribution of TeXmacs with Type1 fonts
From either the extra-fonts or the windows-fonts packages [0] (I'll
find out which are already provided by other packages and which
aren't), as this prevents some problems like long font generation or
errors during that process [1]. And besides that, they seem to yield
better document results. ;-)

However, there is no license statement included in the tarballs. This
makes it quite difficult to even only distribute them, since there is
no written permission. Joris stated earlier [2] that the fonts were
generated from the .mf sources, I seem unable to find these.

It'd be nice if somebody could make the origin and license terms of
usage of these fonts more clear to me. :-)

Thank you,
      René
