.fea files are an Adobe standard. FontForge can export and import them, but
normally stores the OpenType features inside it's own .sfd files, together with
the glyphs. So the upstream doesn't need to provide .fea files, although working
with text .fea files, like Adobe's foundry does, has some definite advantages. I
posted the link to an Adobe ATypl presentation on the fedora-fonts-list on this
issue.

As for generating OpenType CFF fonts, I have no trouble doing it from the
FontForge "File/Generate Fonts..." menu; just choose "OpenType (CFF)" as output
format. My FontForge scripting skills are lacking, so I don't know how to do it
non-interactively.

Btw, the link for the bug report doesn't work for me.
