 > @SergeyBiryukov
 > For Persian, Tahoma is suitable for normal and small sizes, And Arial
 Bold is suitable for headings
 > But the combination of these 2 fonts will not perfect totally for
 Persian
 > The typography of Tahoma and Arial fonts may be good for English or some
 other languages, but not enough for Persian
 > Using those fonts, the site will look like an old site in Persian,
 > That's the reason I mentioned to include IranSans font, I granted a
 license for whole wp.org
 > I think this is related to the theme to choose its font, Not related to
 WordPress core
 > Many advanced Persian themes and sites use IranSans font for their theme
 > I don't see any popular Persian sites which use Tahoma or Arial as their
 font
 > So we have a theme on WP.org web site which it has its rules, We can
 define its rules
 > So we can decide to have an old feel and looking site for Persian, Or an
 advanced!
 > I really don't like to lose our visitors by displaying an old looking
 site
