Just installed Liberations Fonts (Red Hat) and changed KDE Desktop fonts to use them. I am not using sub pixel hinting and don't plan to use them due to MS patent over it.
Now that there is an open replacement for MS fonts to distribute freely (I assume that is the point of Liberation fonts), I was thinking if the future distributions install them as default fonts in Desktop and apps, then it will look good out of the box.
Think this is more a matter for -factory than for -ux. Therefore CC'ing. I also think this is something that needs to be reviewed. If it's not ready to be default it should at least be available on repos. In any case we need an official comment on it, and a good reason not to use it, if we won't, or people will automatically assume it's about politics and RedHat. Perhaps liberation fonts can replace Agfa-fonts.. one less proprietary package to worry about. From what I can tell Liberation Fonts is definitely a project we should support. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
