[theme-reviewers] Entypo Font

[Emil Uzelac]

Definitely, however once something is generated as font,
it can be licensed under different type of license such as OFL
in this case. Icons as graphic would not be acceptable, however
fonts are.

I would also change this: GPL-Compatible Icon
Sets<http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Review#GPL-Compatible_Icon_Sets>to
GPL-Compatible Icons and Fonts because fonts are fonts
and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dingbat that's what they
really are.
