DeepL translation:
The fonts in this collection are currently distributed under the three licences listed below. The Open Font Licence (OFL) is the only recognised free licence to date that has been written specifically for the software and cultural objects that fonts are, hence its widespread use in the free font field. Yet the publisher of this license, the global non-profit organization SIL, is based on a foundation and culture that is not very much like our own. That is why we are looking for and discussing and collaborating on alternative free licences and licenses, allowing for types of exchange that lower the power relations.
The OIFL (Open Inclusif..ve Fonte License), a French and inclusive writing adaptation of the OFL, see below.
The OFL (Open Font Licence).
The quasi-free CC BY-NC-SACreative Commons licence with attribution, sharing under the same conditions, but no commercial use.
Free license is often associated with free. Indeed, Bye Bye Binary fonts are free, downloadable by all. But, perhaps counter-intuitively, this does not mean that no monetary exchange is possible or desirable, we need resources to continue this important work. It's not always a known or clear issue, but many free font designers have been paid in one way or another for their work. Sometimes it's very meagre, as in the case of Google Fonts, sometimes it's as part of a more general graphic work, sometimes it's a clear commission and the commissioner gets a font that fits their needs for a fee, which is then distributed under a free license. We support the latter model. And we hope to see the number of free fonts that are made inclusive, thanks to paid designers, grow.
OIFL - Open Inclusif..ve Fonte License
PREAMBLE: The purpose of the OIFL license is to stimulate collaborative font development around the world, to assist in the creation of fonts in the academic or linguistic communities, and to provide a free and open framework through which these fonts can be shared and improved collectively.
OIFL-licensed fonts may be used, studied, modified and redistributed freely, as long as they are not sold by themselves. The fonts, and any derivatives thereof, may be supplied with, incorporated into, redistributed and/or sold with any software, provided that the reserved names are not used in the derivatives. The licence of the fonts and their derivatives may not, however, be changed. This obligation to maintain the OIFL licence for fonts and their derivatives does not apply to documents created with them.
