Condensed, extra condensed, compressed variants. #128

I love Source Sans Pro and use it on my UI work every time I need something clean, legible, neutral and modern. However, there are cases where a condensed/extra condensed/compressed variant would help a lot, making this family even more versatile. This isn't a trivial request, but if no one asked for it yet, I'll gladly be the first: please, consider making these variants at some point if at all possible.

Thank you for such a good open typeface!

And a 'wdth' axis if possible.

Is this considered? Being worked on? Not an option any time soon? :-)

Any update on this?

@theseer I would like to add these additional styles at some point in the future, but no active work has commenced or is likely to happen in the immediate future. Therefore this is not really an option for the foreseeable future unless you know someone who would like to fund the development of these styles. I myself am busy on other Source-related projects an only have so much bandwidth and it is all being used up at this current time.

Thanks for the heads up :-)

Just out of curiosity: What would sponsoring entail?
