Hi,
There are a Japanese TrueType font, called XANO mincho though, I'm not sure if that license is comfortable for us to include into Fedora. So it would be appreciated if someone can review it before going to proceed the package review.
TIA, -- Akira TAGOH

Its fine, its based on the Bitstream Vera font license, but it is less restrictive. I've named it the "Mincho Font License", you can use "Mincho" in the License: tag.

That's good then. well, "Mincho" is a standard typeface name categorized in Serif as we have Sazanami Mincho font say. it would be less confused if we name its license as "XANO Mincho Font License" and "XANO" in the Lincese: tag IMHO.

Doesn't matter to me. I've changed the tables to match this.
