Sorry, there must be some confusion, I am not the original author, I'm just the maintainer of the Debian package. > Then a group could form a project around your font just the same, but > now would be able to respect your wishes as regards licensing with no > ambiguities or future contentions? As I'm not the author, my wishes are pretty irrelevant :) What I wrote before about licencing was just my own opinion. Mark Williamson <node ue gmail com> is the author and he released it into the public domain, I'm assuming that is the licencing he preferred for that font (he released another font MPH Yangon under the GPL), although I haven't really discussed licencing with him. I'd suggest anyone wanting to clarify his wishes wrt licencing please contact him. Apart from the licencing stuff, is anyone interested in being part of the group to work on MPH 2B Damase? -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
