I have found the orignial SIL-licensed files available on the internet, and
have made a new GitHub organization and corresponding repositories for the
fonts themselves.  Please see https://github.com/OpenLilyPondFonts

I've included all that I could find from fonts.openlilylib.org, as well as
Bravura.

I'm happy to add other contributors to the repositories, and would like to
add example usage .ly scripts as well but I just got this going and wanted
to share with people here early.

I know that this might be somewhat controversial (as it seems the original
authors are trying to hide the content) but given that this is fully intact
with original SIL open font licenses, etc., I'm confident that this is the
right thing to do to keep these files available in their open form.
