Hi Fabian,

many emails, short answer.

That will break with renaming, since the map files list the *FontName*
so changing the FontName needs adjustment of the .map files.

For now we can upload. As long as the TeX Live package do not 
ship symlinks to the new fonts nothing happens.

On the usptream (TeX Live) (I am also maintainer there) I will see if
we can prepare an updated package for CTAN with the exact fonts,
which would solve the problem automatically.

Bottom line: Is there anything else before I should sponsor this package?
