I think core fonts are a highly user-visible part of the distribution,
and it would be better if the people @rh behind this project presented
it on fedora-devel before people learn of it through a press release.

This development is probably positive but the communication choices so
far are not too community-oriented (which is a pity since the
licensing choices  imply a community orientation)

I doubt I've exhausted the questions people will want answers to.
