<PRE>Hi there,

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.

&gt;<i> The font choice is part of the Style set of decisions, so if the text

</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I wonder whether the variation in the fonts would be less obvious, if
</I>&gt;<i> there was more white space on the poster? If the background was
</I>&gt;<i> white, and you used colours rather than images to break up the layout?
</I>
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!
