That makes a 2:1 majority for "is not suitable for main", and since
that's my own conclusion, too, I'll accept this view.

Err, excuse me? The three mails by Marco, Mark and you were the first
ones to give me an answer to the question I wanted answered, thank you
for that. I didn't ask because I expected a "is suitable for main", but
just because I don't feel comfortable with legal stuff, and because I
had a faint recollection that fonts are handled specially because of
some special reason.
Regards, Frank
