Also considering that ACID 3 was supposed to test features that were in
CR state or better in 2004, it should be pretty clear that WOFF does not
apply. (http://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1200301306&count=1 - criteria 5)

ACID 3 is not about real-world interop and never was.

Saying that, I have to say that no CR state or better in 2004 said that
@font-face must support TTF. Regardless of this, I think ACID 3 should
not be changed for this.

I'd like to see WOFF test in ACID 4, though.
