Dear all,

As requested by many during the STIX fonts beta review phase, the STIX
Fonts project changed its licence to the OFL (was using a custom
one-of-a-kind licence initially). The change is effective in the STIX
fonts 1.0.0 release, which has been pushed in Fedora today:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=186404

This should be fine as the OFL is Fedora's preferred font licence (with
the GPL, provided the standard font exception is not missing)

Best regards,
