Hi,

I checked CORS support for @font-face font download in different browsers. It appears like IE and Firefox apply CORS, but Chrome doesn't (I only had Windows desktop versions). Is this correct or am I missing something?

If yes, what are the plans for Chrome/WebKit/Blink to implement it, for different platforms? Requirement to apply CORS is MUST in CSS Fonts spec and as I remember Chrome team(Tab?) was not opposed to doing this two years ago.

Thanks,
Sergey

P.S. What www-fonts@w3.org list is used for?
