Or ... 0.3-1 :) But thanks, something went wrong while copy-pasting three packages.

1. As Zocial fonts started as a separate project, are we sure that the MIT licence covers them? I'm just slightly concerned that the font metadata includes the statement: "Copyright 2011 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All rights reserved."

2. The summary: "A css3 Social Buttons Sass Framework" doesn't describe the font.

I'm on thin ice here, have no more information than what's in the upstream url (https://github.com/adamstac/zocial). That said, a plain copyright from Adobe shouldn't really change anything, should it?

Also, it's obvious that these fonts are handled as "free" on the web, they are sort of wide-spread. Basically, this boils down to that the license markup is wrong since it doesn't mention Adobe, I guess. 

Please enlighten a font newbie: how do I display font metadata?

You are right, will fix (same links)

Comment 5 Alec Leamas 2013-04-25 15:26:57 UTC
Finally some progress

First, zocial is not present in http://www.adobe.com/products/type/font-licensing.html. This site seem to cover all fonts which have some kind of restricted use. 

There is no other match when looking in the Adobe site for zocial.

I think I have found the ultimate upstream https://github.com/samcollins/css-social-buttons. I have evidence on the web that Adobe has been using this font, but Sam Collins seems to be the original author. 

Links updated in-place (but with a changelog this time).

Filing a question to upstream why the Adobe copyright is in the metadata:
https://github.com/samcollins/css-social-buttons/issues/55. That said, I don't see this as a problem right now.
