microsoft has decided to remove the TTF fonts from their webpage, however here is a sourceforge mirror to replace them. I havn't found a mirror for the arial unicode, however 'default' fonts download just fine. I've cc'd the maintainer on this it's a simple fix i don't belive he will mind.

There's not much to see on the Web page any more, so why not remove it from the pkg-descr? Running "strings" on the Arial Unicode distfile produces: NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A VALID EULA FOR ANY "PRODUCT" (I.E., MICROSOFT OFFICE, MICROSOFT PUBLISHER, AND ANY MICROSOFT PRODUCTS THAT INCLUDE MICROSOFT PUBLISHER AS A COMPONENT PRODUCT), YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO INSTALL, COPY OR OTHERWISE USE THE COMPONENTS AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS UNDER THIS SUPPLEMENTAL EULA. which is much more strict than the license for the other fonts. It doesn't permit downloading from anyone but Microsoft, so it would probably be best to remove the Unicode fonts from the port. Doing so would make it possible to remove the RESTRICTED line as well, since the other fonts may be redistributed (so long as they are unchanged and not made part of a product that is sold). Here's a patch that would do these things. I only gave it very cursory testing.

State Changed From-To: open->analyzed Here is what I'd like to do: - apply the changes in the patch I submitted - add to MASTER_SITES the site found by blackend in the audit trail for PR 41716, that is, <URL:ftp://ftp.vn.ua/pub/win/freefont/>. I downloaded the distfiles from there and they all had correct MD5 hashes. - probably, add to MASTER_SITES the sites submitted by Christian Brueffer in PR 41716, namely <URL:ftp://ftp.uni-koeln.de/pc/win32/msoft-95/> and <URL:ftp://ftp.ic.tsu.ru/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/webfonts/> - e-mail to the maintainer looks like it will bounce, so I will try to contact him at his duth.gr address and suggest that the address on the MAINTAINER line be changed
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports->trevor I'm looking into this.
State Changed From-To: analyzed->closed MASTER_SITES updated, MAINTAINER set to ports@, whitespace fixed, Unicode font removed to avoid legal problems, RESTRICTED and WWW lines removed, and PORTREVISION bumped for the Unicode removal
