[TxMt] Re: Coda, Panic Sans Font

The Bitstream Vera readme says thusly (http://www.gnome.org/fonts/):

The fonts have a generous copyright, allowing derivative works (as  
long as "Bitstream" or "Vera" are not in the names), and full  
redistribution (so long as they are not *sold* by themselves). They  
can be be bundled, redistributed and sold with any software.

And from the Coda help files:

Panic Sans Mono font based on the font Bitstream Vera, modified for  
improved small-size legibility on Mac OS X.
