I have uploaded the file urw2.zip to the /incoming directory at dante.ctan.org. Please, remove everything from the directory fonts/urw and unpack the archive urw2.zip in the directory fonts/urw then.

Doing so will create the subdirectories urw/antiqua and urw/grotesq, with the free URW fonts URW Antiqua Condensed and URW Grotesk Bold, accompanied by detailed installation instructions and ZIP archives with all required files to use them with LaTeX.

The Nimbus fonts are no longer included, because the present versions on CTAN are hopelessly obsolete and are superseded by the collection that comes with Ghostscript.

Thanks for the upload, I installed the files in

fonts/urw

Please, remove also the present metrics for these fonts, i.e., the directories

    fonts/psfonts/urw/antiqua
    fonts/psfonts/urw/grotesq

fonts/psfonts/urw/nimbus

These metrics are now obsolete and are lacking decent documentation, anyway. Metrics, VFs etc. are now distributed with the fonts.

I deleted these directories from CTAN.
