I know a while ago Adobe Utopia was discussed as something  which could be 
modified and used as an open font...What about Helvetica?
Adobe Helvetica

^^^^^ 
Seems pretty open / reusable, but the "without fee" may mean it can't be used 
 in commercial fonts? Or does it just mean Adobe / DEC won't charge you a  
fee?
