> You need to bump the release for each change (even during review).
No :)

> I've got some questions about this:
Trying to answer, but bear in mind I'm on thin ice here. This is my first font
package. Furthermore, it's about a web font which doesn't seem to have good
guidelines in place(?)

> What is the difference between the stuff in the @font-face directory and
> that in the Desktop typeface directory?
Just assuming from the name: the desktop stuff is more like a regular font,
targeted to be used by local applications. The @font-face stuff should then be
what the web application send to a client requesting a font after parsing a
css3 @font-face tag. 

> - Why not ship all of the fonts?
Basically because I'm lazy, I'm packaging this as a dependency for openerp7
which is a web application. Also, since this is a web-centric symbol font, I
don't really see much value of it in e. g. a word processor (might be wrong,
for sure).

> - Is the .svg file needed?
A @font-face tag typically lists several alternative formats for a font, svg
sometimes being one of them. I see no reason to limit what the web server can
offer in this respect.

> - What is the .woff file and is it needed?
woff format: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WOFF
Needed: see above.

> - Do you need both the .ttf and the .otf files?
Here are not otf files I can see(?)
