Hi,

maybe you could include some more information how the font appdata
files themselves should look, as opposed to the one-level-up metadata
files. E.g. I looked at the schema at http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/
and they don't seem to have the string "font" in them at all.

Some more examples would be good too. Does [1] look OK?
appdata-validate complains about missing screenshots, are those necessary
for fonts' appdata?
