I took a look at your package and here's some notes about it:

 * there is no .diff.gz file, put your debian subdirectory outside of
   upstream sources, otherwise it's native package and it shouldn't
 * if there is opened ITP then you should close it with your changelog entry
 * your prerm and postinst scripts are generated automatically during build, 
   so there is no need to include them in your debian subdirectory
 * please remove most comments from your rules file, most developers know
   where they have to add commands to install the package, and these scripts
   are aimed mainly at developers
 * please extend description a little, would be great to see there supported
   encodings so someone looking for iso-8859-2 fonts could find it
 * I'm not sure, but defoma-hints Location header should probably mention
   languages able to use this font... and if there is iso-8859-2 support, 
   then list of languages probably differs from English only
 * debian/copyright should explicitly mention copyright holders, writing
   who are the upstream authors is not enough

Otherwise package looks good for me, and I would be interested in
sponsoring it.
