I just got an update fo the gyre project: 

More details and the fonts itself are at the projects page 
http://www.gust.org.pl/e-foundry/tex-gyre/.

At the download page, a separate OTF zip bundle is provided for each 
font and fonts history was started.


-- Schola (QCS) is here, at the pre-release version of 0.995
-- Pagella (QPL) moved  from ver. 1.000 to ver. 1.010,
-- Termes (QTM) moved from ver. 1.000 to ver. 1.010,
-- Bonum (QBK), moved from ver. 0.995 to ver. 1.000.

although this is currently in its first stage (merge existing fonts) pagella has cyrilic but not that nice 

The authors are quite open for comments so ..
