AFAIK there was no resolution on the fonts, the discussion ended on
asking Michael Acevedo, but he never replied.

However since we are discussing this changes, it would be a good idea
to jump to an open font type, like Nimbus or Liberation and have a
deadline to reach a conclusion.

>From other discussions about the icons, there is a bit of a push back
on accepting "Oracle's impositions" like the Orb and the Galaxy
themes. Rob's idea is that we actually have a more Visual Design
documentation that take advantage of the design elements we currently
have, and maybe generate new ones.
