Oooh, that' s interesting!
I recently came across the "ScholaX" LaTeX package which is also an
extension of TeX Gyre Schola.
https://ctan.org/pkg/scholax
The README file mentions:
Changes in version 1.026
1. Added a number of new glyphs to extend the coverage of the TS1 encoding.
2. Modified the sizes and positions of the tiddles on glyphs related to i
and j to better match their appearance to those in the original URW++
clone of Century Schoolbook.
I don't know if this project is related to C059, I haven't seen the mention
anyway.
The license is also LPPL.
Cheers,
Xavier
