Thanks OXullo, looks good I've sponsored the upload.

Btw, one thing I like to do when merging in new releases (but totally
not required) is list a few noteworthy features, so users looking at the
changelog will know what they're gaining from it.

Title:
  unclear licensing for the enclosed font and some samples

Status in “empcommand” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empcommand

  Even though the font uni05_53.ttf is stated to be 'free to use in
  commercial or personal work' and a mail states that it can be
  distributed along empcommand, the font can't be considered of public
  domain.

  Some samples are stated to be PD, but the source has unclear sentences
  regarding the fact that the samples might have been fetched from the
  internet.

  Moreover cc-sampling+ is not dfsg friendly.
