My advice would be: 1. drop every core fonts package except one to keep legacy users happy (probably xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-15-100dpi) 2. drop xorg-x11-fonts-Type1. Nothing in there not provided by more modern font packages 3. fonts-japanese is probably not 100% necessary when VLGothic is available 4. drop culmus — DejaVu full includes Hebrew no one complained of during the F9 cycle, so no need to keep a separate Hebrew font on a space-constrained media 5. Have the Arabic l10n group choose between kacst and paktype 6. Have the Indic l10n group sort the huge number of indic fonts, keeping only one package per script (sarai, lohit, smc, samyak) 7. Have the Chinese l10n group choose between cjkunifonts-uming and cjkunifonts-ukai 8. add dejavu-fonts-experimental — you *really* want the distro default fonts to have a complete face set, a lot of users will notice and complain otherwise I'm afraid most wins are in 3. 5. 6. & 7., and they depend on l10n groups telling us their wishes, which unfortunately has not happened a lot so far. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Fonts/Triaging/L10N remains terribly incomplete.
