<br><br>Indeed, I already included the new Rachana_w01.otf font in the<br>ttf-malayalam-fonts package on behalf of Soumyadip, the real maintainer<br>of the package.<br><br>One last step that would be interesting is getting a reliable location

Mr. Hussain KH<br>
<br>
I most humbly request that you put up the latest updated version
of the fonts at the upstream location <a href="http://www.rachanamalayalam.org/">http://www.rachanamalayalam.org/</a>
, which I gather from the <a href="mailto:indic@unicode.org">indic@unicode.org</a> list as the official site
of the Rachana Akshara Kala Vedi.<br>
