Hi, YAL! Any chance this could be made available with the CC-Atribution+ShareAlike license?

That would mean effectively surrendering the ability to ever make money back for time I've put into drawing the font, so I'm not entirely sure why I would want to do so?

Edit: non-profit license vaguely maps to CC-BY-NC though.

Sorry, but I don't follow the reasoning. Wouldn't proprietary projects be incompatible with the CC-BY-SA? Such projects would still have to pay you to use the font. I thought it was a "GPL-like" license for creative works.

As per licence text, CC-BY-SA only requires that you distribute your contributions to the material (so, in this case, font edits) under the same licence, not that you distribute your projects under that license. So that's LGPL rather than GPL.

I see. Thanks for taking the time to clarify, and I'm sorry for the confusion.
