Template won't work with new meta fonts #1

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that the template does not work with the new meta font anymore. The fonts are only available as .ttf files, which cannot simply be used with pdflatex. Consequently, it is necessary to use lualatex, which requires further changes.

babel --> polyglossia
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setdefaultlanguage{english}
\setotherlanguage{german}

inputenc --> luainputenc
\usepackage[utf8]{luainputenc}

fontspec to set meta font
\RequirePackage{fontspec}
\setsansfont{MetaOffcPro}[
UprightFont = MetaOffcPro-Norm.ttf,
BoldFont = MetaOffcPro-Bold.ttf,
ItalicFont = MetaOffcPro-NormIta.ttf,
SmallCapsFont = MetaScOffcPro-Norm.ttf]
}

There are further smallcaps fonts for bold and italics, which are not included this way. This probably requires further fontspec and beamer work.

However, there seems to be an issue with tikz and lualatex so that the front page has multiple ercis logos in strange positions. and two WWU logos.

Finally, the build process has to be adjusted to use lualatex (build-tex.xml). Additionally, the build process fails at the moment, because the cache folders are created in the wrong place (build-beamertemplate.xml:153-154) and the "\locale" command has already been defined (build-tex.xml:72 + source files).

Best regards,
Fabian
