+
+    Hello Brian,
+    
+    We would like to redistribute your fonts as part of our Free
+    operating system Debian GNU/Linux (http:/debian.org), but we need
+    your permission to do so. Previously you told Philip that we can
+    "use" any of your fonts, but that does not cover the right to
+    "redistribute" them. We need you to properly licence your fonts, or
+    else we cannot make them part of our system.
+    
+    Please take a moment to read this slightly longer email.
+    
+    On your website, you state that we "may not Sell or Distribute my
+    Fonts for profit or alter the font file(s) [.ttf .fon] in any way
+    without asking me first."
+    
+    This makes it impossible for us to put your fonts into our archive
+    and give easy access to hundreds of thousands of users, because we
+    are a Free software project and *everything* we distribute has to be
+    Free itself, allowing people
+    
+    - to distribute your fonts further, without asking you
+    - to create new fonts, based on your fonts, without asking you
+    - to make changes to your fonts, provided those changes are noted
+     and the original fonts are still attributed to you.
+    
+    You can find out more about our requirements here:
+     http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines
+    
+    
+    Let's assume for a minute that you'd like for us to be able to
+    distribute your fonts. The easiest and most sensible way to achieve
+    this would be to use an existing licence, such as
+    http://www.opensource.org/licenses/artistic-license-2.0.php and make
+    your work publicly available under this licence; limiting the
+    licence to our project does not work. The advantage of such
+    a licence is that it's been scruitinised by lawyers and is being
+    used all over the place. I also release all of my software with this
+    licence.
+    
+    Why would you want to do this? Well, the best answer is that it'll
+    help your work grow and reach people you wouldn't otherwise reach.
+    This means you'll get many more users and your name will be carried
+    further. It's also highly likely that you will get feedback and
+    patches, proposals for changes, and bug reports.
+    
+    There are also other benefits. We'd also be happy to give your more
+    information, or answer any questions. Or you could have a look at
+    Eric S. Raymond's book _The Cathedral and The Bazaar_, if you'd
+    prefer that.
+    
+    We would really like to be able to redistribute your amazing font
+    collection! I am hoping to be able to work with you on this.
+    
+    I can also call you at +1.607.6475726 (I got that from
+    aenigmafonts.com whois information) if you'd prefer to talk about
+    this on the phone.
+    
+    Thank you for your time! And I am looking forward to your reply!

+    
+    As I said, it's not enough to give us the permission, it has to
+    extend to all our users who need to be able
+    
+    - to distribute your fonts further, without asking you
+    - to create new fonts, based on your fonts, without asking you
+    - to make changes to your fonts, provided those changes are noted
+     and the original fonts are still attributed to you.
+    
+    Is this what you intended when you wrote the above?
