The Font-HOWTO still described woody as "testing".  It says nothing about
defoma -- is there some helpful documentation available for using it?

Somebody needs to update the Debian part of the Font HOWTO file.  The
upstream author seems to know little about Debian; the last update of the
source file was back in 2002.

The good news is that the Font-HOWTO is actively maintained again
for some months now, the bad is that it now contains no
Debian-specific information at all :/

But this is nothing I can do something about and should discussed
with the HOWTO maintainer directly. So closing the report.

Gruesse,
