IRC

We do not have a dedicated IRC channel right now; the general low-traffic ##fonts channel on irc.freenode.net should be used instead. It is shared by all the FLOSS font groups and is distribution-agnostic.

SIG members

The following Fedora members contribute on a permanent or semi-permanent basis to this SIG:

• MairinDuffy
• BehdadEsfahbod
• KevinFenzi
• DimitrisGlezos
• NicolasMailhot
• HansUlrichNiedermann
• JensPetersen
• RahulSundaram

External references

• The freedesktop.org text layout working group regularly publishes materials on present and future state of text rendering on FLOSS desktops. They're all a must-read.

• Ed Trager maintains the very complete unifont web site.

• The Open Font Library is an effort to host open fonts, though all may not be free enough for Fedora.

• Other distributions have fonts packaging projects, notably Debian and Ubuntu .
