Some feedback (not a real complete review yet, you have some rework to do
first)

1. your packaging is based on the templates we used 2/3 months ago. Since then
a major new version has been approved. You need to read the current version of
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:FontsPolicy and adapt to it

(in particular
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:FontsPolicy#Technical_implementation
but do read the rest, it has changed and been clarified too)

The policy changes have been made to simplify packaging, trying to minimize the
work needed to adapt current packages, so it should not be too hard for you.

2. your summary is not very informative

3. URL needs to be the font project homepage, your chosen URL is not really
useful in a browser

4. since this entity creates other fonts, a foundry prefix would be a good idea
in the naming (for example aegean)

5. since this you know this font is a cosmetica fork, which is itself an optima
fork, you need to tell this to fontconfig via some substitution rules.
fontpackages-devel has some templates you can follow to do this easily

6. since we've considerably simplified fonts packaging lately, we require at
least *two* clean font package submissions before sponsoring someone. So you'll
need another submission for this one to succeed.
