Hello team,
Design team have recently chosen Cantarell for body text.
I have packaged Cantarell fonts for Fedora and am looking for review [1].
I noticed Dave Crossland is part of SIG Fonts so, if interested, he can
be co-maintainer
of abattis-cantarell-fonts once it passed the review.

TeX-Gyre Fonts
by TK009
I am ready to put these up for review but have a question about what the
proper name should be for these fonts.
gust-tex-gyre-<font name>
or
tex-gyre-<font name>

Fonts package Makefile?
by Dave Crossland
Hi,
Where can I find a Fedora font SRPM with a makefile, from which I can
make one for Cantarell? :-)
I suppose this will be a FontForge Python script; if there isn't yet
one, I will make one.
Cheers

Disabled bytecode interpreter
by Ben Laenen
On the fedora fonts bugs list there just appeared a message that the bytecode
interpreter in freetype was disabled again. Any idea about why this was done?

From VFB to UFO to TrueType?
by Paul Flo Williams
Several of the League of Movable Type faces are mentioned on the Fonts
Wishlist, with caveats that they should be built from source.
In this case, the source is VFB, FontLab's format. In order to go from
here to OTF, we must apparently package RoboFab, according to the advice
on the wiki pages, so we can export UFO using RoboFab, and feed this into
FontForge.
However, I've just taken a look at RoboFab, and I can't see a way in which
it can be used to export UFO from a VFB file without having FontLab
installed. You can certainly go from TTF or Type 1 to UFO, but going from
VFB requires that FontLab has already loaded the VFB.
Firstly, has anyone examined RoboFab more closely and can tell me that I'm
missing something?
Or alternatively, would it be OK to package the TLOMT fonts with OTFs in
their zips without going from source?
