What happened to tetex-fontools?

I'd like to (re)package it and be the maintainer for these tools.
Before I follow the submission procedure, could someone explain to me
what an appropriate replacement prefix for 'tetex' would be? I mean,
Fedora isn't shipping tetex anymore, but this useful only for TeX and
depends on kpsewhich (from texlive). Should I change the name to
texlive-fontools or perhaps ctan-fontools? There's a fonttools (double
t) that does something else...
