In short these are Complete redesign of the Cyrillics to a new design that is "acceptable" in todays Russia. Bulgarian forms supported.

They have been retraced from metafont sources and adjusted by hand glyph by glyph. Previous calligraphic letters (Euler type) have been saved in Stylistic Set 6. Character ypogegrammeni redesigned and psili/dasia+perispomeni recomposed for all fonts. LX fonts (very good for beamer work) added in NewCMSans10 and in NewCMSansMath in StylisticSet 8. They have been adjusted for color uniformity and stabilization. Thanks to Claudio Beccari for this. Latin letters in NewCM10-Regular and accented and built composites re-traced from public metafont sources and hand adjusted glyph by glyph so that with the redesign of Cyrillics and the agreement of C.

Vietnamese double accent letters adjusted by properly repositioning accents. Thanks to Karl Berry for letting me know. Variation Selectors added to all supported math glyphs satisfying Unicode version 17.0 Added custom fontspec files that adjust microexpansion of the fonts to match in detail the original CM fonts. Thanks to Alexey Kuznetsov for providing these files. Please consult the documentation of the package for details.

NewComputerModern – Computer Modern fonts including matching non-latin alphabets
This is a new assembly of Computer Modern fonts including extensions in many directions for both Latin based languages, non-Latin based languages and Mathematics, all compatible in style to CM fonts. In addition to the Regular weight of Computer Modern, it provides a Book weight for heavier printing.
Regarding license: Some fonts are now distributed under GPL3+FontException+DistributionException in Chapter7 of the GPL. This is explicitly written and described in the License.txt file and the documentation of the package.
