Now that I'm looking at it again at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitstream_Charter:

What about adding
      http://scripts.sil.org/CharisSILfont
to the distribution, possibly including TeX Live, and replacing the
definitions to use CharisSIL in XeTeX/LuaTeX instead of Bitstream
Charter? The same move that has happened with TeX Gyre? Any comments?
Suggestions?
