Please consider releasing eight to twelve core fonts into the public domain. The amount of revenue lost from a small core set of fonts surely can’t have a significant impact on Adobe’s bottom line. And the gesture of releasing such a set into the public domain would have many positive ripple effects for years to come.

Get web type up and running by giving away fonts - sounds good to me.

On a personal note, I’ve been privileged to have had the dream job early in my career at the company you built. That opportunity provided me the room to grow in my craft in ways that I never could have imagined before going in. Adobe is in my blood.

Well anything that can fire up the process of getting new font to the web would be nice - even some bum lickin'... (just glad someone else took the first lick)
