This font version has been worked on by just 1 person, maybe that person didn't know how to bundle the license properly. I'd say go with GPL v2.

As I remember, it is also derived from another arabic font and that person just added some extra glyphs for Persian. We could double-check the original licence.

Listing both should have us on the safe side, but I don't know how Debain usually handles these cases.

According to their homepage, developed by IMRC, India, for the University of Cambridge.

Contact e-mail jds10@xxxxxxxxx.

I found their project homepage: https://code.google.com/p/myanmar3source/

Sure, go ahead. From the coding side, you will need to change the paths in fonts.lua when you do that.
