Would the Ubuntu Font License at; http://font.ubuntu.com/licence/ be considered compatible with the Pharo license?

If it is not _compatible_ would the usage of Ubuntu fonts still be acceptable/permissible within Pharo?

Thanks,

Pharo is MIT, you can do what you want with it. If you mean compatible in the sense that you may a) Make a loadable package which honours the UFL, which can be loaded and used in a Pharo image b) Put the Freetype font files alongside your image (along with licensing notice), and set it as your default font then yes, it is compatible. What I don't think could be done, is embed them in a distributed Pharo release, since UFL specifically prohibits relicensing, and it's a goal to keep the distribution itself as MIT, not MIT "with certain parts under the UFL". Nothing stops you from doing that in an image you intend to distribute yourself though, because hey, MIT. Cheers, Henry
