Well, as propably many tools around, otfinstall is a tool which arose
for my personal needs. As soon as it worked, I stopped putting
time into it. If I can see any demand, I will pick it up again. But
there is luatex/mkiv waiting behind the corner. Then all this will be
obsolete anyway. So in my (and a some other people's elses) opinion,
putting any non-trivial effort in pdftex/mkii based solutions is a
waste of time. Better install luatex and write a font guide for
luatex.
