Fonts rendering and hinting

Hi all,

I'm reading a blog called bad concurrency, and I didn't expect a post
on Fedora[1] yesterday.

Since I'm not really into eye-candy (running xfce since fc16, started
with Fedora on a gnome fc15), I've never really tried to tweak my
desktop that much (I do a few things though).

What really caught my attention here is that he mentions an expired
patent, and I was wondering why it's only available on rpm fusion.

My guesses:
- there are other legal issues
- interested parties missed/forgot it
- interested parties are working on it

Does anyone know about this ? As I said I'm not really into eye-candy
but smoother fonts means easier reading, and that would be better for
our eyes, wouldn't it ?
