--- Comment #13 from Stephen Gallagher <sgallagh@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Doing a quick search, it appears that at least some of these fonts come from
fontsupply.com, which has the following disclaimer[1]:

"All fonts are the properties of their respective owners. FontSupply.com does
not claim ownership of any fonts available on the site. All fonts have been
acquired by either being uploaded by the author or user, freeware, shareware,
or a demo of the font... FontSupply.com assumes that files presented to us by
users are free for distribution. If you find a file that should not be
distributed freely please let us know and we will remove the file."

There is no explicit license of the fonts and they are only assumed to be free
for distribution. I am not a lawyer and cannot give legal advice, but I suspect
this will be unacceptable[2]. Probably you will need to remove these fonts from
the tarball[3] and modify the project to use fonts already available and
approved in Fedora.

Of course, all of this assumes that Legal reviews the potential trademark
situation and finds it legally acceptable.
