Any objection to the OFL?

[Steve Slevinski]

Hi All,

We've been discussing licensing issues for SignWriting.  I think the 
Open Font License is ideal for the SignWriting symbol sets.

You can read the online version:

Under the OFL, I do not see any negatives and many positives.  This is 
not a major change compared to what we are doing right now. 

This licensing is important for widespread adoption in the free and open 
source world as well as the proprietary, commercial world. 

You will be free to use the symbol sets for any type of writing.  You 
will be free to use the symbol set with software and include the symbol 
set as part of the software.  You will be free to modify the symbol set 
as long as you release the modified symbol set under the OFL.  You can 
redistribute the symbol set almost any way you want.  The main 
restriction is that you can't sell the font by itself.

Does anyone have  any concerns?  Please ask questions or read the 
license itself.  It's about 1 page long and can be read in about 5 minutes.
