It looks like SIL Open Font License (OFL) to me.

I'm unable to evaluate the Cyrillic aspects of the font, but I'm
currently prevented from using Courier Prime due to
https://bugs.debian.org/1053133 .  I'd also like to start shipping the
new Courier Prime Fountain-mode theme, which this bug blocks.

That said, as a new Debian Font Team member and Debian Developer I'd be
happy to supervise any work or provide guidance into what is required to
rebase Debian's Courier Prime onto this fork.  Ideally it would also be
nice to see Димка's project merged into
https://github.com/quoteunquoteapps/CourierPrime


Kind regards,
Nicholas

P.S. I sometimes miss emails, so if I seem to take too long to reply,
please send a follow-up request :)
