OK, but I'm also interested in the free fonts we have in this list in  
the other thread – if we think about to put up a webpage with this  
list, I think it would be fair to tell people about flaws in those  
fonts.

Malte, you brought up this subject, were you thinking of something  
special or was it more a general suspicion concerning free fonts in  
general?
