Sadly, I am still collaborating with people who understand technology better than me to correct recent problems with Lohit and Utkal as webfonts and occupied with other work as well, Thanks Srikanth, but bot being able to help as my lack of expertise in technicality. The WebFont is just launched, I think a couple of other fonts will soon be candidates to be used for Devanagari based WPs.
