             Summary: Whisker - Replace externally loaded fonts Mate SC and Overlock with locally hosted ones to comply with privacy regulations
                 Key: RAT-360
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-360
             Project: Apache Rat
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: site
    Affects Versions: 0.16
            Reporter: Philipp Ottlinger
            Assignee: Philipp Ottlinger
             Fix For: 0.16.1


Due to 
[https://privacy.apache.org/faq/committers.html#can-i-use-google-fonts]
we should replace the
{code:html}
    <head>
      <![CDATA[<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Mate+SC" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />]]>
    </head>
{code}
snippets in all webpages with a locally hosted version.

This applies to all of Creadur's projects: [https://whimsy.apache.org/site/project/creadur] 
h2. Font Mate SC / Overlock

licensed under [https://openfontlicense.org/]
is part of the google-main-fonts:
{code:bash}
fonts-main/ofl/matesc$ ls
DESCRIPTION.en_us.html  MateSC-Regular.ttf  METADATA.pb  OFL.txt  upstream.yaml
{code}
 - no attribution required
 - 2.1 Can I make webpages using these fonts?
Yes! Go ahead! You could ask visitors to download and install the fonts, but loading the fonts dynamically as webfonts through CSS @font-face declarations is a much better method. The referenced fonts can be hosted on the same server as other site assets and content, or loaded from a separate webfont service. This is recommended and explicitly allowed by the licensing model because it is distribution.
