The theme Triculin used the Drupal.org Git Repo to illegally distribute a font known as "Myriad Apple" that is Copyright (c) 1992 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Myriad is a trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated.

Myriad is normally sold as a commercial font, bundled with a kit that cost US $916, according to https://www.fonts.com/font/adobe/myriad

In other words, this user has put the Dupal Association at risk of having to pay restitution to Adobe for hosting this commercial font online.

To limit the liability of the Drupal Association, I strongly suggest that the repo is unpublished ASAP (or that it is rebased to remove all copyrighted materials). A separate issue will be be posted at the webmaster's issue queue to request removal of the project (see related issue).

A notice about this copyright violation is also posted in the project's own issue tracker (see child issue) and sent to nitish chopra (project owner) via the Drupal.org Contact form.
