OFL 1.1 explicitly prohibits dual licensing, so the derivative works may be 
distributed only under the terms of OFL. So if someone will decide to instruct 
such the font with xgridfit, (s)he has to distribute the modified version as 
OFL font. Further derivatives and this one may not reveal sources.
