Thanks for this. I love the work that individuals have been putting into open sourcing historical Microsoft products.

I notice there are two (identical) copies of the Comic Sans .ttf in the repo; are they also covered by the terms of the MIT license?

According to “otfinfo -i”, they’re an older version than the one typically packaged on Linux (https://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts...). Do you think you could swing an official release of the latest and/or historical versions of Comic Sans under MIT or another appropriate license like SIL OFL?
