Yes, I have no objection. I too have to admit that the ttf-malayalam-fonts is
in a state of neglect. The work outstanding is the inclusion of Rachana. A
version of Rachana was released a month or so back by the Rachana team, but
when I spoke to the developers, it looks like the ever controversial "chillu"
characters are still not handled properly in Rachana. It has to be fixed for
it to be useful, so I thought of not distributing buggy fonts and kept quite.
