I think the list must have been down for a day or so.....
I decided I did not need these fonts for general use, but for Open Office2
only, so I moved them to OO2's font folder.
OO2 was a bit slow booting the first time, but it's back to normal now. Plus I
have an insane 3500 (or near this number) fonts to choose from!
Firefox starts in 6-10 seconds now.
