3+ Change license for Noto fonts
4+ =============================
5+
6+ With the new release we have moved from Apache 2.0 to Open Font License 1.1 (OFL 1.1). We
7+ are making this change because it makes it easier for you, the end users of Noto, to use
8+ the fonts that we produce. When we first released the Noto fonts the OFL license was
9+ still a bit of an unknown entity and the Apache license looked familiar to us. Over the
10+ years the OFL license has become the most commonly used and understood license to use for
11+ open source fonts.
12+
13+ All of our fonts going forward from this release will be available only under the OFL
14+ license. If you still want the fonts under the Apache license you can get them from the
15+ repo using the tag '2015-09-29-license-apache'. However, new fonts and updates to
16+ existing fonts will only use the OFL license.
