IPAMonaPGothic



Hello!

Today I've done some research on IPAMonaPGothic, a superior font to `fonts-mona`, which Debian distributes.

I have determined that IPAMonaPGothic is open-source, in the same way `fonts-ipaexfont` and `fonts-ipafont` are. It is therefore suitable for inclusion in Debian, and should be included.

You may see my research into the matter here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:An_essay_on_the_copyright_status_of_IPAMonaPGothic,_and_its_suitability_for_use_in_open_source_projects_and_on_Wikimedia_Commons

The regular Mona font has very ugly kanji, while IPAMonaPGothic is suitable for both 2channel ASCII art and text.

Best,
Fred Brennan
