I'm not entirely sure that this team has reached very ambitious goals
yet (when I launched it, I talked about writing a font packages
policy, which still has to be written down....).

I'm missing the needed time, and probably skills, to very efficiently
animate this team and make it more than just a collection of
individuals who maintain fonts...and share a common repository.

This is maybe enough to at least achieve a few goals mentioned by aba,
though. People who want to jump in that team are highly welcomed in
pkg-fonts. The contact mailing list is
pkg-fonts-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org
