+fonts-open-sans
+---------------
+
+The upstream website (http://www.opensans.com) does not publish
+any version information, and it is unclear if and how the font
+will ever be updated.
+
+The font is distributed in the form of a two zip files, open-sans.zip and
+open-sans-condensed.zip. These need to be repackaged to comply
+with debian source package standards.
+
+To find out if an update was released, you should download and
+unpack the fonts manually, then use otfdump to find out if they
+have a new version.
+
+
+Download the current font packages first:
+
+$ wget http://www.opensans.com/download/open-sans.zip http://www.opensans.com/download/open-sans-condensed.zip
+
+Unpack them into the source repository:
+
+$ unzip -o open-sans.zip
+$ unzip -o open-sans-condensed.zip
+
+
+Test if any of the files are tagged with a new version:
+
+$ for i in *.ttf; do echo $i; otfdump $i | grep '(nameID 5 "Version' ; done
+
+This should print something like:
+
+OpenSans-CondBold.ttf
+    (nameID 5 "Version 1.11")
+
+for each of the fonts. Note that they may not all have the same version.
+
+If any of the versions differ from the current package version, or if
+
+$ git status
+
+shows that a file has changed, it is recommended to prepare a new release.
+
+
+To accomplish this, debian/rules includes a script that does most of
+the work for you. Update the changelog first:
+
+$ dch -v <NEW_VERSION>-<PATCHLEVEL>
+
+Replace <NEW_VERSION> with the new upstream version, as determined above,
+or increment <PATCHLEVEL> if only some fonts have changed and the highest
+font version is still the same.
+Add a suitable changelog line. For example: New upstream release
+
+Then save and run the tarball script (it uses wget and unzip):
+
+$ debian/rules get-orig-source
+
+This should produce a new ../fonts-open-sans_<version>.tar.xz file.
+
+Commit the updated TTFs and Debian changelog, then release the new package.
