Hi Robert,

As I recall, the way the Google Fonts system is set up by Google, does
not require you to download anything. It's all done via CSS Urls that
point at Google's servers, or something along those lines. So why do we
need to upload a ZIP file? If I remember correctly, it's so that we can
have the font files sitting on the web server, so that the server can
use them to generate the skin thumbnail images.

The thing is... even that isn't really necessary. We could just ask for
the Google font URL stuff, and then fetch the font files using curl. But
I didn't have time to fix that when we went live with skins version 1.0,
so that's how it currently is. But we should really fix it at some
point.
