Usually, the way requests like this work here is by creating a PKGBUILD and uploading it to the AUR. Then Arch Linux users can build the package using makepkg, or a more automated tool like yaourt. If the package gets enough votes on the AUR it will be considered for inclusion in the community repo where it can directly be installed by pacman. If you need help creating a PKGBUILD, or want to request someone do it for you then see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=38.

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. I figured it most likely wasn't a serious request.

Meeku: It's a legitimate Press Release not spam/troll. There is spiritual non-materialistic content in email address and font reasons.

Meeku: It was a genuine Press Release. Grateful if you could help by putting it on your Linux distribution now that you have the font download information. I am not a coder or techie-active in the I.T. community and there are so many people in your circle I am sure you could request. I leave it in your good hands. Please contact me via email if you or others could progress it.

Good to hear. Get a blog / twitter / facebook / social network flavor of the week account. This is not a place for your press release that may only be tangentially relevant to this list, at best.

As I said earlier, there is a place for that if you are unwilling, or unable to create a PKGBUILD yourself. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=38 Good luck finding someone to fullfil your request.

The funny thing is that this is not even a valid email address. The local part (everything before the @) should be at most 64 characters long, and there it’s 84 characters long.

Meeku: Nice thought and grateful for your words. hare_krsna_hare_krsna_krsna_krsna_hare_hare_hare_rama_hare_rama_rama_rama_hare_hare is the Mahamantra, the great chant for deliverance in this Age. When I searched for a free webmail service, it was not easy to find webmail allowing big character numbers as most free webmail providers allow only small character numbers at this time. It has some relation/bearing to the small character numbers 'rule' (63 characters) allowed for internet domain names which don't allow the Mahamantra character numbers (68 or 91 or 83 or 64). Thus this practise of not allowing big email addresses has developed in the internet sector. It could be said that this is unwritten IETF led being used by others in the 'trade'. I have requested on the IETF mailing list/s that the existing internet domain names character number be extended from 63 characters to more at least 76 or 68 or 91 or 83 or 64, the higher it is the better for the Mahamantra character numbers at least: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dnsext/current/msg10342.html
