[Bf-committers] Blender 2.69 testbuild1 AHOY

[Sergey Sharybin]

Are we talking about international font or about bfont?

As for international font i've made sure font licenses are getting coped to
release archive which seems to be all right with font licenses.

As for bfont, it's license is also included. However, didn't see any
requirements in cases font being bundled into executable itself. License
might be enough, maybe not. Anyway, it was bundled like this since ancient
ages and never caused issues.
