------------------------------------

Seems like a fine license to me. Very acceptable as Category A.

> The incubating Apache PDFBox includes AFM font metrics files for the core PDF fonts. The files are available from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/font/#pcfi and come with a file containing the following license.
>    This file and the 14 PostScript(R) AFM files it accompanies may be used,
>    copied, and distributed for any purpose and without charge, with or without
>    modification, provided that all copyright notices are retained; that the
>    AFM files are not distributed without this file; that all modifications
>    to this file or any of the AFM files are prominently noted in the modified
>    file(s); and that this paragraph is not modified. Adobe Systems has no
>    responsibility or obligation to support the use of the AFM files. 
> I believe this is consistent with Apache policies and that we can redistribute these files. Am I right?
