The SPSPARC2 model wasn't removed in the Xorg repository and is still

These files are no fonts, they are font metrics information (and the
copyright notice was just copied over from the original font from the
converter and does NOT apply to the font metrics files. The converter
just preserved all context attributes of the font regardless of their
content). The PMF fonts shipped with Xprint _conform_ 100% to the DFSG
1/2/3 specs. This has extensively been discussed in the past.
