Kayah Li is a minority script for the Red Karenni people of eastern
Burma (Myanmar).  Because the Burmese government tends to persecute
minority populations, this writing system is only taught outside
Burma, primarily in refugee camps in Thailand.

I am currently looking into licensing options -- the Kayah Li glyphs
will be included in FreeMono, which is licensed under GPL3; but I'd
like this font to be OFL.  I've asked the FreeFonts maintainer for
advice, so this should be resolved soon.

Regards,
Daniel
