Adrien, if it's not too much work, could you please prepare two
different versions of the installer picture, one with the official
(currently) non-free typeface of the "with debian" logo at
http://www.debian.org/logos/ and one with a DFSG-free typeface.
I'm still positive we can do the relicensing of the currently non-free
typeface in time for Wheezy. But clearly not in time for the freeze. So
if there could be two versions of it, we can choose between either:
1) ship now the non-free version and have an RC bug against it for the
non-freeness
2) ship now the free version and ask for a freeze exception to include
the official typeface later on. *If* the only difference is in a
difference typeface in an otherwise identical image, then hopefully
the risks of inducing regressions will be minimized.
Choosing among these two options is probably better left to the
desktop-base maintainers + the release team. I guess that (2) is a more
conservative choice anyhow, that leaves us a releasable desktop-base
package even if the relicensing fails.
Cheers.
PS I just came back after 5 days of (Debian-related) traveling and I
still have to catch up with -desktop traffic
