Interview with George Williams (FontForge)
Interview (unedited files) with George Williams, developer of FontForge, the open source font editing tool. Conversation about Shakespeare, Unicode, the pleasure of making beautiful things and pottery. Enjoy!
Listen to the recording :
GW_dl1.mp3 [8.1 mb] and GW_dl2.mp3 [16.6 mb]
… or read the transcription: “I think the ideas behind it are beautiful in my mind”
This interview is part of the book I think that conversations are the best, biggest thing that Free Software has to offer its user.
