I'm not sure who (if anyone) has been alerted about this request for us
to host some Bengali fonts which apparently have some uncertain origins,
despite their licensing.  (See ticket URL above for details.)  This
situation's probably not critical, because there's nothing being hosted
by Fedora yet AFAICT, but it would be nice to respond to the
requestor(s) in the ticket.

CC'ing a couple of folks who can check this out.

The fonts in question have had unclear origins particularly related to the glyphs. This issue has been out there for a while without a very clear statement from the developers.

Sayamindu (cc: ed) has some more knowledge about the lack of clarity of these set of fonts.

On a personal note, I would not like to see them hosted at Fedora Infrastructure or included as part of anything related to bn_IN (which is maintained by Runa) till there is clarity on the issue.
