Mr. Hudson has started this "we've somehow made font making a primary activity and text design secondary."
Not text design... TYPOGRAPHY!
Now I wonder how that happened. How did we end up with a useless barking font wrapper, and no metadata. . .
Could it happen again? You can bet on it. Over and over it will now happen. I have confirmed this with Adam, and group leader.
No way out now buddy, except privately.

* There are numerous good examples of font making serving non-typographic text design, especially in the 17th and 18th Centuries, in which the style and arrangement of text is driven by scribes and engravers, and in which type has a marginal and supporting role.
Mark's out of context tweet? quoted a rhetorical question, stated at the end of the introduction to a 30 minute dual presentation, the title of which is published. The question, in context, was about the relationship of type education to all the font drawing so many people want to do, educationally or not, relative to the main point of the presentation, being, as I said, typography. I'm not trying to straighten out anything else, now, except this century, (the 21st).
Why not use WOFF for print?
It could more efficient if you gathered up your questions, sent them to one of our consultants, then maybe they will weed through them, perhaps do an interview of me, where these questions could be asked, and possibly answered.
