Sure it does.
http://www.press.redhat.com/2007/05/09/liberation-fonts/
"Red Hat contracted with Ascender Corp., one of the leading
commercial developers of fonts, to develop a set of fonts that are
metrically equivalent to the key Microsoft fonts."
Well, I didn't scour the Web looking for references to Liberation fonts.
I read the page you sent (https://www.redhat.com/promo/fonts/) where it
says nothing about metrics. Who reads press releases?
You were referring to "publicity". Press releases are a good example of
that and says what you wanted explicitly. Problem solved.
But nobody believes them without some peer review. Where do we find
that? Hmmm, it would be neat if distros had something like Amazon's
'customer review' sections for each package that they offer.
