Formal review:

asana-math-fonts.noarch: W: no-documentation

Unfortunately Asana claims to be OFL, but reuses material from pxfont which is 
GPL + Exception.
ftp://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/pxfonts/COPYRIGHT
Please contact the Asana author to check he got authorization from pxfonts 
authors to relicense the glyphs (a mail would be fine), and if not have him 
relicense Asana. If upstream has a relicensing authorization please package it 
as %doc. (you can also try to contact pxfonts authors)

OK  | MUST: The spec file must be written in American English.
OK  | MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible.

Builds fine with upstream's material. If upstream uses fontforge and fontforge 
sources could be available, that would be even better.

N/A | MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build 
OK  | MUST: All build dependencies must be listed…

NOK | SHOULD: If the source package does not include license

Additional info
1. The font looks serify to me, not fantasy (fontconfig rule)
2. the embedded version has changed from CTAN to OFLB so presumably the author 
takes care or versionning there. You don't need to use a date as version.
3. if it gets approved do not forget to register in the engineering comps group
4. you can CC <fedora-fonts-list@xxxxxxxxxx> 
<Openfontlibrary@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and probably <ctan-ann@xxxxxxxx> to 
your exchanges with upstream
5. don't forget to update the wiki with the result of your investigations

Thank you very much for looking at Asana. I realise it's not as easy as it
should have been, but it would be insanely great to have it packaged, and our
scitech users would love to have it available
