I hate to rain on this parade but seriously, I don't think this is such
a good idea at all!

I doubt your automatically produced deb or rpm is up to the standards to
become part of a distro archive. It will create problems with existing
open font packages and duplication pains. Not cool.

Also the OFLB shouldn't be doing big releases of a big pile of very
different things, each font is released separately by their author on
the OFLB, we should respect that.

I recommend focusing on the remaining integration tasks and the font audit.


Cheers,
