Bug Description
To comply with Ubuntu's policies as well as best practises in collaborative open font design and to facilitate the long-term maintainership of the font project, the sources and the DVCS tree structure of the master branch of the public release needs to be defined.
Issues include consistent naming of the files and subfolders, the availability of extended sources beyond the final ttf files themselves, smart font behaviour sources and hinting sources, specimens, a FONTLOG.txt and related documentation, copyright & licensing information, trademark guidelines, helper tools, contribution guidelines, etc.
The discussion on these issues in ongoing with the foundry. This is a placeholder bug created and tagged as a reminder.
