It is a little difficult to keep up with various people asking for
their favourite font to be included in place of some other font. IIRC
this has been going on for sometime with ttf-malayalam-fonts. Now that
I'm working on a major upgrade to the ttf-indic-fonts package, I'd
like the various stakeholders to thrash out the issue and announce
their final verdict.

Christian, Jaldhar : It looks like the new ttf-indic-fonts will need
some time to get in shape. I might miss the freeze deadline, Can you
please squeeze it in if it misses the deadline ?

Thanks
