+SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.0 - 22 November 2005
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+PREAMBLE
+The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide
+development of cooperative font projects, to support the font creation
+efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to provide an open
+framework in which fonts may be shared and improved in partnership with
+others.
+
+The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and
+redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The
+fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded, 
+redistributed and sold with any software provided that the font
+names of derivative works are changed. The fonts and derivatives,
+however, cannot be released under any other type of license.
+
