DejaVu fonts: msg#00178kde.users.pim
Hi, following up on the previous discussion about the default fonts for KDE. Americans and some Western Europeans suggested Bitstream Vera as such standard font and we, non-latin1 people (I am from the Czech republic) were opposing that because Bitstream Vera doesn't work for us. However, there seems to be project for extending Bitstream Vera fonts for reasonably large subset of Unicode. See <http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page> and Debian bug#296072 (which is ITP). I am using these fonts just now and they seem to be pretty good (so far, I haven't found anything suspicious, but I am not a typograph so probably I don't see many possible mistakes). Is there any DD among us, who would be willing sponsor that ITP?
