agree to put it out as open source! This article at Tarunz.org, provides some

work on Linux and other Unix variants within Netscape — the only browser which includes support for dynamic fonts on these systems.

urged to go open source with the technology for the benefit
of the Mozilla project, BitStream reaction was readiness
to do so. Call for action to Mozilla developers.”
