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

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?

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/'
