Gentium is still incomplete in Cyrillic part: it's been "Work In Progress" for more than two years now. :( Doulos might be worth looking into, but on desktops, it's more common to use sans-serif fonts (serifs improve readability on paper, but hurt it on low resolution outputs such as our screens :). > I have wished him luck with that (May the poke be with you), and > hopefully we'll hear about it if there is any progress.

Having a more liberate license (GPL-compatible) on fonts Adobe is already shipping along with Acrobat Reader 7 (Myriad Pro, Minion Pro—two excellent faces!) would make me a lot happier! :) They are not making any money of them this way, but I guess you can't use them in typesetting your own documents if you got them with "for free" Reader.
