Hi all,
Everyone seems to forget the Fedora Kurd users, but anyway, I'll try
I'm not forgetting them, I just don't know any. The Kurdish Linux
community
is pretty much an Ubuntu Community as far as I am aware.
If you have any user of CentOS, RHEL or OLPC they all reuse Fedora
packages.

Is there any chance that packaging for one distribution (Fedora or
Debian) will spare me packaging it for the other?
None at all, unfortunately (well everyone tends to copy what's in
RHEL, but that's no decent sharing). Deb-based distributions with copy
debs of other distributions, rpm-based distributions will copy rpms of
other distributions, but you still need to make sure there is one of
both to have correct user coverage.
However, while the packaging steps are a little different, you'll be
asked pretty much the same things Debian and Fedora side.
I remember packaging a dictionary
years ago (for Debian) and found it difficult.
I've always considered rpm friendlier on the packager side, but I'm
obviously biased.
Later I was happy to see that
somebody had made a RPM from it without contribution from me.
Is something similar possible for fonts?
You can always hope, but there is no guaranty that it will happen soon.
