The OFL is fine for a license. TL already has several other OFL'd fonts. If someone puts the fonts on CTAN, I don't mind incorporating them in TL. (As a practical matter, it is a lot of extra work for me to work with any package that is not on CTAN. And besides, we want CTAN to be "comprehensive".) It would also be nice to have supporting TeXish files, but if the bare otf's/ttf's/whatever SIL gives are useful with LuaTeX/ConTeXt, I don't insist. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
