I've just taken a look at the Unicode terms of use:
http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html
and the license (Exhibit 1 on that page), which according to this message:
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2009-February/000540.html
is MIT.
That's a nice change. IIRC it was not always so (that's why I piggybacked on
perl originally)
So, packaging the data could be useful to us?
Yes. That would help dejavu, but also all the packages that ship unicode
definitions, and could be cleaned up to use a central package (that could be
synced with unicode releases instead of each package shipping obsolete
definitions)
If you feel like doing some resource packaging
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/cmap/CMap+Resources is also duplicated
everywhere
Otherwise I'll just package unicode data next time dejavu does a release and I
need to rebuild the package
