Hello;
I think we should have a port the new fonts that the Google
Chrome OS developers have made to replace the so-called
Liberation fonts:
http://chromestory.com/2010/09/default-fonts-of-chrome-os-tinos-arimo-and-cousine/
The best place to get them seems to be here
http://gsdview.appspot.com/chromeos-localmirror/distfiles/croscorefonts-1.21.0.tar.gz
but I couldn't get them with fetch(1) for an unknown reason.
As you may know, Apache OpenOffice won't be carrying anything
GPL'd so the Liberation fonts won't be included, which is not
really a problem as we can use them pre-packaged in FreeBSD,
but while looking for replacements, these seem to be better.
best regards,
Pedro.
