Hoi, One way of dealing with fonts is not only providing them for real time download but also for installation on the system. In this way we can provide the best possible service. Also we do need a proper font for the languages where the standard Latin fonts fail us !! Thanks, GerardM

I'd also offer my own MPH 2B Damase, although I'm not sure how it ranks in quality compared to other fonts these days. I created it several years ago and released it into the public domain.

Since download time is a concern, we'd generally be looking for smaller font sets, such as one that covers specifically the language of an individual wiki, rather than high-coverage fonts like that or Code 2000.
(eg a Tamil font for ta.wikipedia.org, a Canadian Aboriginal Syllabary font for iu.wikipedia.org, etc)

Those would, obviously, be forbidden to upload. As with any uploaded media, all uploaded fonts would need to be explicitly and irrevocably released under a free license, which means no requirements for readmes
An example (someone correct me if I'm wrong) is the SIL Open Font
License.
