I didn't advise that seriously. Upstream requested a renaming when I
asked its opinion about rebuilding from sfds, so renaming it is, and
it'd better be the same for all the people that rebuild from sources. In
in fact it made me put old standard on hold till I found a good name
and/or argument to convince upstream to change its mind.

Another upstream argument was fontforge just changes all the time and he
does not want to have to follow it closely.
