Hi, Jon, I'm the guy currently working on a server-side font analysis program for OFLB.  The idea is that when a user uploads a new font, the program analyzes the font to determine various properties of the font, including orthographic coverage, inter alia.  The program's output report will inform OFLB whether, for example, a font covers only Western Latin or whether it also covers Central European, Turkish, or Vietnamese extended Latin characters.  Similarly useful analyses will be performed for non-Latin scripts, if present in the font.  The report results will then be stored so that users browsing available fonts will be able to instantly see coverage results.  Eventually it should also be possible to search for fonts meeting specific coverage requirements, among other things. I personally believe that the font analysis program will form a key part of the new OFLB site. The font analysis program is currently in an alpha stage of development.  I think I will have the program to a fairly decent "beta" stage by the middle of February.  Integrating the program into the OFLB cms will also require development work and time.  If I had to put forth an estimated completion date, I'd venture to say no sooner than the middle of March. There are probably other aspects of the development picture that I am not aware of, so it would be good to hear what Dave and Ben say.  I can only address the area of site development that I am personally involved in.
