Hi there.No mention of this is given on the website (needs amending!) but when I install the ekushey keyboard and font, it presents the LGPL. I was wondering if the authors of the fonts Rupali and Solaiman Lipi would be willing to re-license those fonts under the MIT license (aka 3- clause BSD license) or as public domain? The website does not give author names.
The reason I ask is that I've been working on AAT fonts for Kannada and Telugu, and approached Apple about including them in Leopard, but the man I spoke with said they would not accept GPL or LGPL (which these fonts were). I would like to see the Bangla script in there too, but you would need to offer Apple MIT-licensed versions of the fonts at a minimum. Can this be done? It would allow Bengali support in the OS by default, which I'm sure is something you'd like to see too.
- Nicholas.
