On <a href="http://opengameart.org">http://opengameart.org</a> (drupal-based freely-licensed community game art site), the moderators get notified via email about a new submission. Any of the moderators must then 'edit' the node/submission and check "publish this item" for the art to be visible by non-moderators. There is no great mechanism for discussing these submissions though.<br>
<br>I think a good way to moderate submissions would be to make it visible (at least to registered users) but not list it in searches or lists and then have the system start a new thread on this list, giving links to the page of the submission. Then we could express our problems or our approval with the submission and based on the discussion, a moderator can accept the font.<br>
<br>It might be useful to have a "source" or "proof of originality" text field with the explanation "We check every font manually for copyright compliance. Please tell us where you got this font or how you made it." This might make it easier to research whether or not the font is oflb-ok.<br>

its a hard one. The ideal scenario is to have humans help review.<br>
