-
-This file lists contributors and contributions to the GNU FreeFont project.
-
-
-* URW++ Design & Development GmbH <http://www.urwpp.de/>
-
-URW++ donated a set of 35 core PostScript Type 1 fonts to the
-Ghostscript project <http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/>, to be available
-under the terms of GNU General Public License (GPL).

-* Yannis Haralambous <yannis.haralambous AT enst-bretagne.fr> and John
-  Plaice <plaice AT omega.cse.unsw.edu.au>
-
-Yannis Haralambous and John Plaice are the authors of Omega
-typesetting system, <http://omega.cse.unsw.edu.au/>. Omega is an
-extension of TeX. Its first release, aims primarily at improving TeX's
-multilingual abilities. In Omega all characters and pointers into
-data-structures are 16-bit wide, instead of 8-bit, thereby eliminating
-many of the trivial limitations of TeX. Omega also allows multiple
-input and output character sets, and uses programmable filters to
-translate from one encoding to another, to perform contextual
-analysis, etc. Internally, Omega uses the universal 16-bit Unicode
-standard character set, based on ISO-10646. These improvements not
-only make it a lot easier for TeX users to cope with multiple or
-complex languages, like Arabic, Indic, Khmer, Chinese, Japanese or
-Korean, in one document, but will also form the basis for future
-developments in other areas, such as native color support and
-hypertext features. ... Fonts for UT1 (omlgc family) and UT2 (omah
-family) are under development: these fonts are in PostScript format
-and visually close to Times and Helvetica font families. (from the
-Omega WWW site). Omega fonts are available subject to GPL
-<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/omegafonts.html>.

-Metafont and PostScript Type 1 are also supplied. The Wadalab Kanji
-Comittee has later been dismissed, and the resulting files can be now

-
-* Young U. Ryu <ryoung AT utdallas.edu>
-
-Young Ryu is the author of Txfonts, a set of mathematical symbols
-designed to accompany text typeset in Times or its variants. In the
-documentation, Young adresses the design of mathematical symbols: "The
-Adobe Times fonts are thicker than the CM fonts. Designing math fonts
-for Times based on the rule thickness of Times = , , + , / , < ,
-etc. would result in too thick math symbols, in my opinion. In the TX
-fonts, these glyphs are thinner than those of original Times
-fonts. That is, the rule thickness of these glyphs is around 85% of
-that of the Times fonts, but still thicker than that of the CM fonts."
-TX fonts are are distributed under the GNU public license (GPL).
