Hello;

I think we should port the new fonts that the Google Chrome OS
developers have made to replace the so-called Liberation fonts:

http://chromestory.com/2010/09/default-fonts-of-chrome-os-tinos-arimo-and-cousine/

The best place to get them seems to be here
http://gsdview.appspot.com/chromeos-localmirror/distfiles/croscorefonts-1.21.0.tar.gz

but I couldn't get them with fetch(1) for an unknown reason.

As you may know, Apache OpenOffice won't be carrying anything
GPL'd so the Liberation fonts won't be included, which is not
really a problem as we can use them prepackaged in FreeBSD, but
we are looking for replacements and these seem to be better.

best regards,

Pedro.
