--- Comment #5 from Benson Muite <benson_muite@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
In this case consistent QA rules do not seem to be followed.  

Based on the standard, the Vendor ID should link to a vendor name, but this
part of the standard does not seem to be followed.

Perhaps MakeMusic would consider registering as a vendor if prompted?

The foundry/vendor name is also used in the font rpm file name. This does help
in distinguishing between different types of fonts, especially ones that are
modified versions of existing fonts. Maybe the guidelines should be updated to
clearly indicate that "Foundry" is the rights owning entity
(manufacturer/creator/foundry). The example spec file indicates:
# The identifier of the entity, that released the font family.
%global foundry           
Perhaps this should be updated to
%global vendor
or at least clearly documented as vendor.

Thus, your use of MakeMusic seems reasonable, though it would be good to check
with them if they are ok with this and if they can register and fix the
VendorID.

otfinfo seems useful, though in Fedora, LCDF software is bundled as
https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/texlive-base/texlive-lcdftypetools/
though likely should be its own repo as it is released separately:
https://github.com/kohler/lcdf-typetools
