Spec URL: http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts.spec SRPM URL: http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts-0.9-2.fc9.src.rpm Description: The mission of the Scientific and Technical Information Exchange (STIX) font creation project is the preparation of a comprehensive set of fonts that serve the scientific and engineering community in the process from manuscript creation through final publication, both in electronic and print formats. License needs approval by legal, but looks legit This is a major font project that took years to complete (timeline starts in 1995) and has just been released. Upstream beta period when fixes can be identified ends on december 15, so Fedora diffusion is needed quickly so our users can report problems while there is time
New version: http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts.spec http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts-0.9-3.fc9.src.rpm (the subpackage summaries were not changed after cut & pasting)

"additional" is misspelled a few times. fontconfig should be used to backfill the glyphs from higher codepoints to lower (not a blocker).

Ok, new version fixing additional, and using the short license ID spot just added to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/Fonts/Good http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts.spec http://nim.fedorapeople.org/stix-fonts-0.9-4.fc9.src.rpm Should be good now I think
Approved.
New Package CVS Request ======================= Package Name: stix-fonts Short Description: STIX scientific and engineering fonts Owners: nim (FAS) Branches: F-8 devel InitialCC: fedora-fonts-list Cvsextras Commits: yes
cvs done.
All set and pushed to F8 updates and devel
No F-7 builds?
I suppose I could do F-7 when the dust settles a bit, but it's not my priority right now
I'm a bit swamped in Fonts SIG work right now
Please do, we're on a F-7 deployment @ work, and would love to start using/testing these asap.
Understood, but it requires checking if F-7 fontconfig understands the same syntax as f-8 fontconfig, so it's not that simple
Ok, it seems F7 and F8 fontconfig are compatible, which makes demand for an F7 version easier Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: stix-fonts New Branches: F-7
Added and build in F-7. Do complain if it does not reach a repo rear you. Also, send remarks to http://www.stixfonts.org/betafeedback.html before the end of the beta period (dec 15)
Thanks Kevin!
