The license of dejavu is:
Original licenses + modifications in public domain
Original licenses are:
- vera
- arev
- tex gyre
all under the same license, from a quick skim
- AMSFonts, which is under a somewhat loosely worded license that allows
~everything, which asks *not* to use the copyright notice on any
modified font.
