Fonts To Do List

Last updated 2011-05-19

  • FontForge bugs, always
  • 4 packages in F14 show up FontForge warnings when building: beteckna-fonts, linux-libertine-fonts, oflb-riordonfancy-fonts and thai-scalable-fonts. Try to determine why these warnings are occurring and whether they have any visible effect. If so, document the effect so that future fonty people know that the warning is useful.
  • /Fonts in progress – tracking reviews of fonts
  • F11 introduced changes to the packaging rules for fonts and there is a tracker for moving fonts out of non font packages, bug 477044. I'm currently trying to supply spec patches on the dependents of this tracker.
  • Updating the fonts inclusion history.
