Bug#356853: Scalable LaTeX font: Licensing question regarding ae fonts

["Lars Engebretsen" <lars@engebretsen.se>]

Grüezi,

My apologies for the delay, some of my mails were not forwarded
correctly to me...

Basically, I don't really have the energy to care about intricacies of
licenses, but if you feel that a) you want to do the work and provide
me with a file that I can then upload to CTAN, and b) that this does
not change the licensing in such a way that the package can no longer
be in teTeX and friends, I'm fine with doing the necessary updates.
