Hi, may I ask if it is possible to include ecofont

libreoffice?


Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion. Do you have further information about
the licensing of that font?

The only external information about "ecofont" licensing that I could
dig up is here at debian:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=509594

I looked at the EcoFont FAQ, but most of their licensing information
seems to be for per-site or per-seat arrangements:
http://www.ecofont.com/en/help/ecofont/faq/0022.html

For LibreOffice to consider the inclusion of a font, it will need to
be available under terms compatible with the project's licensing:
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/license/

The EcoFont toner-saving concept is pretty nifty. If the licensing can
be straightened-out, it's definitely worth considering for inclusion.


Cheers,
