He did it for the logo and I believe he started to do the whole font,
but there was no concrete clue for that. We can still keep this as a
long term project (and open a bug for that). Designing a full font is
quite a lot of work.

Look at www.mageia.org/ CSS style font definitions (I can extract
these for better access if you like). These fonts have been chosen to
articulate with each other and the logo too - at least, that's a
start.
cheers!
