A separate fc demi report is a good idea IMO.
As regards other Notos: at the moment we have other default fonts in
Ubuntu for Japanese and Korean (may be changed in 16.04+), so that's not
an emergency for the 16.04 release.

Right, that is true for many packages. Don't know why. I have made
patches using diff in some cases.

Title:
change default CJK fonts to Noto CJK
Status in Fontconfig:
Confirmed
Status in fonts-noto-cjk package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
just realize that fonts-noto-cjk is available in the repository, finally its packaged.
i don't really know about korean community.
But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear.
noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and fonts-droid.
Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got them fixed on lollipop.
Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21.
and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
