Drat, and I was so happy to get rid of them :( All my other points still stand, though. — We should not ship X versions of the same URW fonts. We should consolidate on the most recent one in OTF format. — We should not hide general-purpose fonts in app-specific directories. TEX should use system fonts directly. — We should no ship font collections in a single package when the legal context is so dangerous, but audit each font separately. Every time someone has tried the font collection way it has finished badly. -- Nicolas Mailhot
