<pre>On the other comments I have no particular view -but- removing fonts from the
install-set is in generally a -really- terrible idea. As such - we should be
-extremely- careful wrt. adding fonts - since then people only seem to clamor
to remove them later. Wrt. removing Liberation - the Liberation set is a vital
part of our interoperability story, since they are metrically compatible with
Ariel and Times New Roman - which form an important part of a vast set of
documents. The ESC discussed this - we can discuss it again if there are some
more presentable facts. Some of the fonts being removed it was claimed were
un-maintained and probably under-used. Any hard data on their popularity to
inform the decisions much appreciated. For myself - I'd far prefer to not
remove old fonts, than to add new ones if space is the concern =)</pre>
