I don't have any real say in the issue; but personally I'd be
unhappy to see Indic TTF fonts added to XFree86 that didn't have
the necessary OpenType tables. Support for non-OpenType Tamil
TTF fonts has been *removed* from recent versions of Pango.
As far as procedure goes, I think it's basically
- make sure that you have good documentation of exactly where
the fonts come from and what their copyright and license is.
- Ask here.

Owen
