On Fri, 5 Feb 2010, Josef Kleber submitted an update to the

  softmaker-freefont

package.

Location on CTAN: /fonts/softmaker-freefont
Summary description: Support files for SoftMaker free fonts.
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In June 2009 www.freefont.de offered a beautiful handwriting font
for free download: The Softmaker Stone Handwriting.
As handwriting fonts are a quite limited resource in the LaTeX world,
i decided to create support files for this beautiful font. Therefore,
Stone Handwriting will be the starting point for the softmaker-freefont 
bundle. Other fonts will be included in future.

Supported fonts at the moment: 
Baskerville-Nova (regular + bold + italic + bold italic), 
Congress (regular + bold + italic), Delano-Caps, Flagstaff, Henderson,
Iceberg (regular + bold), Jugendstil, Old Blackletter, Stone Handwriting


License: LPPL (not the fonts themselves)

New in v1.8:

 - added support for the font family Baskerville-Nova
   (regular + bold + italic + bold italic + faked slanted + faked small caps)
   Attention: The font is not included! This font is font of the
   month (February 2010) and can be downloaded for free (at least
   this month) at: http://www.freefont.de
   Later you can buy it from Softmaker
