Hi Thilo, Danke! Thanks for that quick response. I've already seen that list of fonts you mentioned and the only problem was that weren't too many options for modern looking sans serif logo fonts among the font examples from that list. @All: Please disregard the earlier list of fonts that I mentioned. It seems that it would take time sort out our way through more than a thousand fonts listed there. Moreover, I've just found out that not all fonts there are free (as in speech) and open licensed -- others are just freeware that are just freely redistributable. As an alternative, perhaps it would be better for us to look at the font collection listed at the Open Font Library <http://openfontlibrary.org/>website. I've already found a promising one and you may look at at my first output here: http://softwarefreedomday.org/Artwork/2009/Logo RFC Cheers! ~JM Software Freedom Day P.S. Prior to posting my first output on my SFD '09 logo experiments, as a gauge to whether I'm ready to post that or not, I asked my sister which between the two logos look better: SFD '08 or '09? Her answer was '09 because it's more eye-catching and that motivated to post this now. I hope you'll all like it as well. :-) On Wed, Mar 4, 2009 at 5:22 PM, Thilo Pfennig <tp@pfennigsolutions.de>wrote:

As some/most of you might be aware of, the current logo font (Libel suit) that we are using is just a free (as in beer) font and not a free (as in speech) or open font. Good point. I think one should use a free/open font instead. I would suggest to use a rather new font.
Here is another list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software_Unicode_fonts
I agree that it might be better to renew it all and also to decide quick so that there is more time to do stuff. It would also be a good idea to renew even if tis would not be a problem. So instead of trying to find out IF it is a problem, why not just start?
regards, Thilo
