What happens to the work that was done after the fonts were released under
GPL? Does that get nullified? Some clarity on that would be a great help.

I'll have to have a look. Does this mean that the rest 17 fonts are kosher
and suitable for GPL based work? These are:

Bengali=09=09bng2-n.ttf=09bng2-b.ttf
Devanagari=09dev2-n.ttf
Gujarati=09guj1-n.ttf=09guj1-b.ttf
Kannada=09=09knd1-n.ttf=09knd1-b.ttf
Malayalam=09mal2-n.ttf=09mal2-b.ttf
Oriya=09=09ori1-n.ttf=09ori1-b.ttf
Punjabi=09=09pnj2-n.ttf=09pnj2-b.ttf
Telugu=09=09tlg2-n.ttf=09tlg2-b.ttf
Tamil=09=09tml1-n.ttf=09tml1-b.ttf
