Dear Debian legal team, I was pointed to a font and thought it would be a fine addition to Debian. But the text of its license makes me wonder if it can be included. I did some search, and I think it can be included, at least in non-free. I was wondering if the no derivative clause would prevent it from being included in the main archive. Reading it again, I see there is also a no commercial use of the font, I’m getting sure it can not be in main. Can it be in non-free then? I’ll include the text of the license for ease of reference. ----- [The English version of this License is reproduced below.] [El texto en espanol se presenta sin acentos ni diacriticos de modo intencional.] Reglas de uso Usted puede: -Instalar las fuentes tipograficas en tantos dispositivos como desee. -Distribuir las fuentes tipograficas a quienes desee. -Utilizar las fuentes tipograficas en documentos comerciales y no comerciales. -Guardar las fuentes tipograficas en un formato que se adapte mejor a sus propositos.
