Nice. I'm always on the hunt for a good free font with lower case numerals. It's quite a shame though that OpenOffice.org still doesn't fully support Opentype fonts, and they don't seem to be in a hurry to add it.

I love the fonts presented on the website mentioned above.

OpenOffice.org is a bit of a shame in many respects. It has a position of domination in the open-source office market, it is included in most popular Linux distros yet isn't really that good. Certainly, it's a perfectly capable piece of software, but given the choice between a free, legal copy of MS Word and OpenOffice.org Writer, I'd regrettably choose Word. The MS package is just that bit more polished and less "clunky". It's also got a silly name. Why not drop the .org bit?

The .org is there for legal reasons. There are already other organisations and companies called Openoffice.
