[SAC] staging.www.osgeo.org fails to show fonts when using an (ad)blocker

[Jody Garnett]

I had a quick look, there are tools to download the fonts and the
Javascript that chooses the appropriate approach for each browser.

However the fonts are improved over time, and we have an open issue with
respect to kerning on windows ... which has been reported to google fonts.

Out of curiosity does uBlock cause problems with other sites? Wondering how
widespread google fonts use is ...
