And Liberation is RedHat-side. But since the RH-publishing process for
Liberation is a huge mess, Fedora has proposed hosting Liberation. This
should give us proper VCS & bug tracker if it's accepted. However
while Ascender is working on the fonts I doubt patches will be merged
in. And since Red Hat had big ambitions for Liberation, Ascender may
work on them a for long time.

If you're envisaging significant contributions your best bet is probably
to do a DejaVu on Liberation: set up a separate project, do your changes
there, and merge back Ascender font drops every time they happen.
