The site currently has options for "public domain" and "open font
license," and I recommend using the OFL for any fonts you have made
:-)

The fonts that are not allowed are those that are not commercially
modifiable or redistributable. The following definitions explain what
the free culture movement means by "free software" or "free culture":

For fonts with a license other than PD or OFL, make sure to explain
the precise terms of the license in the font description :-)
