Hi, I have fixed the files according to comments, however regarding copyright: I have no info on which files have been updated by who. This is an upstream package and took what is set in readme etc... 
Regarding: "maybe tell more about what Unicode blocks are covered" I have no idea either. I package those fonts because they are needed by an other package, but I have no idea of the "content" of those fonts.  :-( Thanks Olivier

still have some packages with this in SVN..:-)

Could be shrinked to "provides a set of OpenType Computer Modern
fonts".

maybe tell more about what Unicode blocks are covered.

Think about asking to debian-l10n-english for a review of the package description.

several "Files: <foo>" entries. That's what DEP-5 is about.
