Tamil Fonts from Thamizha -- ttf,eot,woff files
I have generated Webfont files(ttf,eot,woff) for 4 Free fonts listed by "Thamizha" community(Free Tamil Computing) group.
https://github.com/thamizha/tamil-fonts/tree/master/umar/ver-1.0-zip
I tried to install WebFonts extension locally and test, but was not able to download due to some locks on SVN
""svn: Working copy '/mnt/upload6/private/ExtensionDistributor/mw-snapshot/trunk/extensions' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)""
Please let me know if anything more is required to get these additional fonts as part of Webfonts extension. Once the fonts are available, post testing (on translatewiki.net / locally), we might request deployment of Webfonts on Tamil Wikipedia
About the Fonts
https://github.com/thamizha/tamil-fonts
This branch of Tahmizha's github repository for Tamil-Fonts is for the further development and distribution of the 4 Unicode Tamil TTF fonts that were released under GUN/GPL (then version 2) in 2003-2004 by the late Umar Thamby via the site http://www.geocities.com/csd_one/fonts/ . That geocities distribution sight (which had been under yahoo.com) is no longer available.
The four fonts are as follows:
ThendralUni
TheneeUni
TheneeUniTx
VaigaiUni
The Thamizha group (http://thamizha.com) feels honoured in continuing the works initiated by the late Umar Thamby whose contributions towards development of free and open source softwares for Tamil use in computers are invaluable. And these our efforts are dedicated to late Umar Thamby.
