<p>Hello,</p>
<p>In March 2024, an incident occurred where the operator of a web
service converting IPA fonts licensed under the IPA Font License
to WOFF format received a warning from the IPA to discontinue the
service.<br>
In response, questions have arisen within the Japanese-speaking
open-source community about whether the IPA Font License
fundamentally meets the definition of open source.<br>
<br>
I can provide several documents related to this matter, but I lack
the ability to translate them into English.</p>
