Dear Erik, Thank you for contacting and informing me. I am sorry that my explanation was not good. In conclusion, you can include DSEG in FlightGear (GPL licensed software), and distribute it freely. >distribute and sell DSEG data which you modified. This means that I want to prevent sale this font data itself. OFL that you introduced me is very suitable for my opinion, so I will consider change license to OFL. (But I need a little time for changing document.)
