Hi,
With a little delay here are the font audit results for Fedora 12 and 2009-11-22 fedora-devel. I think I've taken into account all the feedback I received since last run. More feedback is of course welcome (except for the file size computation, I know it's broken, was not worth re-doing a 7h test run to fix it).
Seeing some numbers go down would be nice.
Individual packagers should have received their personalized notification some hours ago (some in duplicate, the first relay host I used blacklisted me as a spammer sometime in the middle of the run so I had to restart everything, sorry about that, will try to improve).
Some people asked me why I didn't go the bugzilla route: look at the numbers, there's no way I can write a script smart enough to manage hundreds of bugs with different states. And doing it manually alone would be a nightmare.
Special mention goes to jussilehtola for xine-ui: not only he managed to add 27 font files not packaged according to Fedora guidelines during the F-12 cycle, but 14 are copies of the same font.
Regards,

I question the taste of this remark. Was it really necessary to bring this up in such a public forum?

I guess this just reflect frustration in seing xine-ui adding new copies of the same fonts months after months even though it is explicitely demanded not to in packaging guidelines and it was pointed multiple times whenever the script result were posted to this list this past year.
You're right I should not have posted it this way.
