At first glance, I think it would be a good idea. Would you mind
joining the team and maintain the package in ou SVN repository?

Also, it's probably a good idea to rename the package to have it
follow our "new" naming policy:

fonts-$foundry-$fontfamilyname


Not sure exactly what is the "foundry" for this set of fonts. Probably
should we put the fonts author name here.
