As I tried to explain, I am not going to include any random derivative
font in the package (imagine this would be done for
ttf-bitstream-vera). 

I would be happy to put *all* available derivatives into a separate
package that could be called ttf-tuffy-extra or similar. But then, I
think you could do this your own and I do not need to `taint' the source
tarball of ttf-tuffy.

If you are going to take care of the font and become `upstream' for it
then you maybe should rename the font and create a dedicated separate
package for it, since it will not be 'Tuffy' anymore. Again, this will
not be your first package in Debian so I see no reason why you should
not take over the packaging part yourself.

No offense! ;)
