[Pkg-fonts-devel] Greetings



Greetings,

I am a member of the Non-Roman Script Initiative (NRSI - http://scripts.sil.org) at SIL International (http://www.sil.org/). Many of the fonts that NRSI produces are already packaged and included in Debian. I have been invited by Daniel Glassey to be part of the Debian pkg-fonts team and update the fonts and the packaging for NRSI fonts.

I recently made a new font package for a new NRSI font, LateefGR, you can see my work on my personal GitHub account at

https://github.com/devosb/fonts-sil-lateefgr

In several months, this font should be replaced by the normal version of Lateef (in the package fonts-sil-lateef) so I was not intending LateefGR to go into Debian. Feedback is welcome on the work I did, and I will apply those comments to other font packages. I used the existing Debian project font packaging for NRSI fonts as my guide, and increased my knowledge of Debian packaging.

Regards, Bobby
