That has been my goal since the fonts SIG was started: make it easier for packagers to produce good font packages and try to stamp down anything that experience showed made packagers miserable. I don't subscribe to "if they are not visibly suffering, they're not trying hard enough" or "packagers should push perfect packages, even if it means jumping through countless hoops because tools are not ready" schools of thought. There are things only packagers can fix. Everything else should be handled by tools so packagers can focus on the parts where they add real value. If a process change puts more burden on all packagers because it's easier to ask packagers to do stuff than fix tools, it's a bad process change. And yes I accept than in some cases not burdening packagers means increasing the chance for some problems. Perfection is the ennemy of good. -- Nicolas Mailhot
