------- Additional Comments From nicolas.mailhot@xxxxxxxxxxx  2008-07-06 07:22 EST -------
Thank you for packaging a new font! This is not a formal review, just initial
advice to make sure the actual review can proceed faster later.

1. Please make sure you've followed all the steps outlined in steps 1 and 2.a of
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Font_package_lifecycle

2. Please read attentively 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fonts_packaging

3. Please try to stay as close as possible to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Annotated_fonts_spec_template

If you feel you need to deviate (umasks, defattrs, etc) please explain in this
review why the deviation is justified.

5. Some comments on your spec after a quick overview

A. Please do not create a metapackage
B. Please adhere to our font naming conventions (mona-fonts-bitmap,
mona-fonts-sazanami etc). Unlike other distributions we do not use the ttf affix
C. please ask on fedora-devel if it's not possible to detect font package
versions automatically. Your hardcoded versions are going to bite you someday.
D. you do not need to BR gzip

6. I seem to remember other core fonts packages used to execute mkfontdir in
%post with ghosting. However we do not have any official core fonts packaging
guidelines right now. If you feel you've fully researched the subject, and found
the best solution, do not hesitate to submit a core fonts packaging guideline
draft later.

I realise this kind of package represents a lot of work (congratulations), and I
hope those comments will help you complete it.
