Verdana is a proprietary Microsoft font. Let's focus on open source
solutions such as those previously discussed on the Documentation list
including Liberation, Bitstream, Droid, FreeSans, FreeSerif, Goudy
Bookletter 1911, Flaminia, etc.
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice-Branding-and-Documentation-td1836672.html

The discussion aimed at including ~10-20 quality OPEN source fonts
which are commonly used is quite mature. I suggest you have a look at
the Documentation mailing list for the info.

Personally I would like to see active discouragement of the use of
Times New Roman, Georgia, Verdana, Arial, Calibri, Cambia, etc. as
they are restricted to Microsoft product use only, resulting in
impossible verbatim compatibility.

Thanks for the enthusiasm, even if a bit misdirected IMHO.
