[OpenFontLibrary] licence

[Dave Crossland]

I hope the launched site will stick to ofl+pd, and in future will be
ofl+cc0+gplv3later+fe. The wiki confusion is my fault because it talks as if
either is real. It is a wiki though, so please just dive in and fix the bugs
as you see them :)

Regards, Dave

Would this be solved if the word "often" was removed from
"All the font files you can download from this site are licensed as free
software, often under the Open Font License (OFL) or as contributions to the
public domain."

Well, license issues will always be a high-profile part of free and open
source software. The archives of this list are proof of that :-)

If we only host OFL and PD we will lose some quite important typeface
projects, and this is a current concern.
