Hi,

just ran the script to collect the information for fonts
again. I can see some changes in the list for f17. please
review it if it's what you are expecting. 

Under the mono column of zh_CN, WQY Zen Hei Sharp
is actually not a monospaced font. You may consider
"WQY Zen Hei Mono" for this category. I believe WQY
Micro Hei was also packaged for Fedora, the proportional
and monospace faces in that package can also
be considered.

I did not follow the default font settings in F17.
There was a long standing issue of reading Chinese
under non-CJK locales (en,fr etc) because Japanese
fonts were set to a higher priority in the fontconfig
65-nonlatin. Will this issue be solved with the new
effort?

Qianqian

especially please
pay attentions for the fonts which is gray-colored and
decorated with bold:

Arabic - serif
Urdu - serif

that would means it may breaks the default font selection
when it's installed for other language (it is supposed to be
pulled in by other languages). if it's not what expected, it
should be limited for the certain languages then.

Also that would be a good idea to have the default fonts for:

Tibetan (bo)
Dzongkha (dz)
Thai (th)

On those languages, any fonts in "other" section, which
would supports that language isn't installed by default.
maybe good to think about picking one up from them.
