Has any one thought about openSUSE creating their own font type for their desktops wiki and forums. Ubuntu, Mac and $Microsoft use their own style.
Creating a readable font is time-intensive, and hard to get right too. The time would be better spent on improving the existing fonts like DejaVu or Liberation.
I completely agree that it's best to stick with already available, openly licensed fonts.
FWIW, Firefox for Android packages and uses Charis SIL Compact and Open Sans for its serif and sans-serif default fonts (mostly because the already existing fonts on most Android devices were deemed not easy enough to read, esp. for larger amounts of text). You can find the files they're using in their source tree at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/fonts/
