Sorry, apologies, I incorrectly marked this review needsponsor,
but I see you already own a number of packages in Extras. :-)

Point.  Hmm, unfortunately we don't seem to have clear policy on naming
fonts packages.  In Core currently most core fonts are now named "fonts-<lang>".
I'm not familiar with most of the fonts in Extras, but some of them look
like more miscellaneous fonts, etc.  So I can see both points of view.
So my take is, if this is the standard free font for Tibetan
then we should probably name it fonts-tibetan, otherwise we can keep
the current name.

Right both fonts seem to cover more than one language, but maybe it is ok.
If the main use of this is also for Tibetan I think it is fine to include
in fonts-tibetan if it is also useful for general users of Tibetan.
Both fonts are under GPL so that is ok anyway.
