That thread is almost entirely discussing 'free as in price' fonts,
and not 'free as in freedom' fonts.

Where there is a discussion of 'libre fonts,' it is not about the free
software philosophy, but the open source philosophy, which I don't
think really makes sense for fonts.

This quote was interesting, because it is exactely what we want to
achieve here at the OFLB:

"Is there an open peer-rated font review site? Something like
Slashdot's thread moderation, or Gamefaq's stars would be nice. A font
could be voted up for fullness, craftmanship and/or style (separated
ratings), or down for a lack thereof."
