Which classic typeface would you most like to see an open-source version of?
A lot of famous typefaces from the past have their open-source digitisations, e.g. Garamond, Centaur or Baskerville. Yet there are some still waiting for a proper open-source release. We don't have Romain du Roi, Cloister) (even though we have the beautiful Cloister initials by Goudy) or Benedictine.

Do you have a typeface that actually takes your breath away because you love it so much? For me, that typeface is Sina by Dieter Hofrichter.
I will never not love Coelacanth.
