Oh that's good to know, thanks web team! I was merely noting that providing and hosting fonts wasn't a completely selfless act. I do think they are nice fonts, and definite improvement over the options we had before.
Could inkscape help in the creation of CC fonts? Perhaps a plugin to manage the various lines, clone into sample text, provide kerning pairs etc?

We have an informal policy in the web team to not use any CDN except for fastly, which is the cdn for our content and downloads (much appreciated) for just the reasons you might suspect.
Once a font is selected it will be included in the website's repository in the static folder. See 'lp:inkscape-web/inkscape/static/fonts/'

Of course that's even more true of Google search, analytics, etc. They will not, of course, be able to tell where the fonts are viewed if you clone their repo on github... ;) To be clear, I am not suggesting we link to Google's CDN for the website font. I think we are probably just fine hosting the chosen font(s) on the inkscape.org website.
