Dutch competition produces fonts that rock.

I say whoever designs the best typeface wins. No more nukes. Just heated debates about descenders and serifs. It certainly works for the Dutch. Look at the gorgeous fonts designed by Peter Verheul to “present the Dutch government to society.” I hear Verheul is taking suggestions for new names for Rijksoverheid Sans and Rijksoverheid Serif, so diplomats sipping champagne can pronounce the names of his inventions without gargling their pate.
