Re: Contributing a new font-package

[Fabian Greffrath <fabian@greffrath.com>]

Hi Raul,

thank you for your interest in contributing fonts to Debian!

If you have your font packaged ready and need a place where you can 
upload it so that a Debian Developer can review it and eventually upload 
it into the official archive, then mentors.debian.net is the right place 
for you.

Please make sure that the font licenses comply to the DFSG and that the 
package is clean of the most obvious packaging bugs by checking the 
source package with the lintian tool.

Thanks!

 - Fabian
