21 Dec 2005 "Frutiger" originally was developed in 1970 by Adrian Frutiger, as font to be used by the Paris airport. "Frutiger Next" was developed by German font designer Erik Faulhaber in 1997 as modernized version of the original Frutiger and was first used by the Alte Pinakothek, a museum in Munich, Germany. Faulhaber confirmed to the newspaper that Segoe UI and Frutiger Next are "very similar." But, apparently, he does not consider taking legal action. Instead, he is "honored" that his design idea is being popularized, he told the paper.

Microsoft declined to comment on the report. "We have nothing to share as it is not Microsoft's policy to comment on rumors and speculation," a spokesperson said." http://www.tgdaily.com/2005/12/21/vista_segoe_font/
