1. Delete openTypeNameDescription as it was deemed too long. 2. Change openTypeNameDesigner and openTypeNameManufacturer to "Dalton Maag Limited", as that is what the vendor id DAMA resolves to officially. 3. Insert openTypeNameLicense and openTypeNameLicenseURL. More modifications are necessary.

Probably useful to leave the libre licence for the moment. It is included in the GF release, so changing this would increase the diff size.
| <key>openTypeNameDescription</key> | ||
| <string>The Ubuntu Font Family are libre fonts funded by Canonical Ltd on behalf of the Ubuntu project. The font design work and technical implementation is being undertaken by Dalton Maag. The typeface is sans-serif, uses OpenType features and is manually hinted for clarity on desktop and mobile computing screens. | ||

| The scope of the Ubuntu Font Family includes all the languages used by the various Ubuntu users around the world in tune with Ubuntu's philosophy which states that every user should be able to use their software in the language of their choice. The project is ongoing, and we expect the family will be extended to cover many written languages in the coming years.</string> |

Might be better to fix this upstream by teaching the checker that "Ltd" is an abbreviation of "Limited".

Can we split this into what is useful for reaching baseline parity vs. what is useful for making FontBakery happier? |

The only real baseline change would be to remove the description. The other diffs to baseline are:

officially.
More modifications are necessary: should openTypeNameLicense spell out the entire license text?
