Indeed. 100% agreed :-)

I'd also highly recommend a file in the release tarball describing the 
chosen licensing and some kind of readme/changelog. Actually that's why 
the OFL is promoting the concept of a FONTLOG and provides a template.

BTW, here's a proposed VCS branch and tarball template for an open font:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-fonts/foo-open-font-sources/?rev=0&sc=0

Your feedback very welcome,

Cheers,
