[CJKUnifonts-devel] Links in CJKUnifont project on freedesktop wiki don't work anymore

[魔法設計師]

About CJKUnifont project,I think you may find it in Debian repository
servers. If what you need is source data or raw data ,I think you maybe
find other project.
For example I have a project
http://code.google.com/p/libdgg/

depend on a raw data font "single.fnt" ,which includes 中研院's contribution.
There are more than 78000漢字 in it. You can check out it. It maybe help you.
