Hi Thomas,
Down here in the DBTS we got again an inclusion wish
(http://bugs.debian.org/202472). We were not sure about the licence
of that stuff. What do you think? If it will not go into teTeX cause
of that I'll contact the author to relicense.

Formally not, I fear - according to the to-be new LPPL one should be
allowed to distribute them as, e.g., cmr12.mf but change the
font_identifier-line, as I understand it (This still means to meet the
"I am allowed to break my system, not?"-criterion of free
licenses...). However, since probably a lot of TeX stuff will take some
time "upgrading" to that license and we certainly won't throw all the
"delayed" ones out¹, we can as well let these enter.

ACK.

couple of months/years
