Contribute test fonts to Unicode?

[brawer]

Hi Simon, would you be interested in contributing your test fonts to Unicode’s test suite for test rendering engines? It would need a license change; I can guide you through the process if you’re interested. (Related to #1).

Yes, happy to do so!

Can you send me a signed scanned copy of this form to sascha@brawer.ch ?

Thanks again! I’ve forwarded your CLA to the Unicode secretariat, and added test cases SFNT-1 and SFNT-2 to the test suite. I’ve renamed your fonts to TestSFNTOne and TestSFNTTwo, changed their name table to indicate the SIL OFL-1.1 license, added Copyright by Unicode, and I’ve added your name as the font designer.

Not sure what to do about the color and sbix test cases. Currently, the test framework can’t yet handle color fonts or bitmaps. Perhaps somebody else has time to look at this?

@brawer Wouldn’t it make sense to put the test data there nonetheless? That might propmpt people to actually write the testing code and improve the framework :)
