Hi everyone,

A small but rather important point: fonts classify under software and
not content. Although I agree that open fonts are crucial for open
content creation, the fonts themselves are not the content :-)

So anyone from the fonts side of things contributing to the Libre
Graphics Day miniconf yet? I'll fwd to some font-related lists.

Cheers,
