--- Comment #1 from Nicolas Mailhot nicolas.mailhot@laposte.net 2009-03-22 14:50:12 EDT --- Initial review:

1. MUST: rename the package to chisholm-xxx to be consistent with "to be continued" font

2. MUST: register the font as fantasy, really, this is not a general-purpose font at all (also please use the same casing as the font files use, I don't know if fontconfig is case sensitive or not best avoid problems)

3. MUST: there is no clear version in the font files, so use the timestamp of the most recent file as version (19970902)

4. SHOULD: ask upstream to add a detached .txt licensing file to its zip (the font itself says "all rights reserved", and if the web site ever disappears we won't have any licensing grant trace anywhere)

5. SHOULD: ask usptream to use different family names for the three fonts and not invent weird styles like "at their Execution". They'll drive normal software like OpenOffice mad (yes I know this would make it a multifont package which is a bit harder to create but this is the right thing to do)

--- Comment #2 from Ankur Sinha sanjay.ankur@gmail.com 2009-03-23 00:03:38 EDT --- hi,

The wishlist page for the font said :"Letters Laughing is a decorative/LED sans-serif font." That's why i had registered it as sans-serif..

He'll add an OFL to the zip.. As for renaming the styles, he said he couldnt do that.. Do i make this a multi spec with these families ?

--- Comment #3 from Ankur Sinha sanjay.ankur@gmail.com 2009-03-23 04:20:59 EDT --- hi,

this is what i got for the licensing, please advise..

"As I stated in my previous email, the license is included in the font headers.

You may verify this with the following command:

grep -a -B 6 -A 84 'SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE' *.ttf

This is the standard way that the OFL is attached to fonts, and it's how my other fonts that have already been packaged for Fedora have been licensed."

regards,

Ankur

You may verify this with the following command:

grep -a -B 6 -A 84 'SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE' *.ttf

Check this and you'll see this is missing in the ttf in your package. Maybe you didn't package the same version upstream uses (and anyway a detached txt file is much better)

hi,

The wishlist page for the font said :"Letters Laughing is a decorative/LED sans-serif font." That's why i had registered it as sans-serif..

The wishlist pages are not problem-free, they're only as good as the original reported made them, so as packager you need to exercise caution and check the info provided here is correct when packaging.

...

He'll add an OFL to the zip.. As for renaming the styles, he said he couldnt do that.. Do i make this a multi spec with these families ?

If upstream does not want to change the styles we certainly should not do it in Fedora

hi,

I had used the link on the wishlist page for the package.. He directed me to another link which has "updated packages", I'll upload the packages with this new source today.

(In reply to comment #5)

okay, so i use the simple spec to or a multi spec with his styles?
