Hi all, The updated package google-croscore-fonts-1.21.0-3.fc17 is now pushed to stable. I have done some comparison of Liberation vs Croscore fonts. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/Liberation_vs_Croscore_fonts Currently, I have marked google-croscore-fonts as a optional package in comps-f18. Considering it has got more orthography support compared to Liberation font can we install it default? But, I would also say that we have active development for Liberation font and if a bug comes for Liberation font we can fix it. I am not sure how a bug can be fixed for google croscore font. I can't find upstream URL as well as a way to fix any upcoming bugs and get its fix upstream. We can fix them in Fedora only.
Any thoughts?
Regards, Parag.
Hi, I suppose no reply mean everyone is happy with Liberation fonts as a default install package.
Thanks & Regards, Parag.

I guess you better ask on devel list as well because everyone doesn't necessarily subscribe this list.

I will ask the Google team who manage the croscore fonts (which are commissioned from Monotype) about getting better public points of contacts for these fonts.
I know the croscore fonts have improvements from Monotype over Liberation, and a much better licence situation :) So I thin it would be good to make them default - if patches can be taken upstream.
