        The mplus font license has already been listed as an approved
        Fedora
        font license:
        
        https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Font_Licenses
        
        So I don't know if it's worth having the author change it. Has
        someone
        spoke to him before? (I would worry about pestering him)
