Yes I've read the guidelines. Sorry for the delay!

thlinard commented 6 years ago

An important point in https://github.com/google/fonts/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md: “The project is developed on Github or similar, with complete corresponding sources, open to public participation, and actively maintained. Complete corresponding sources means that the fonts are available in your preferred form of modification, the files you actually use to develop the project, along with all the build instructions or scripts needed to reproduce the process of turning those source files into your released font binaries.”

@thlinard If the upstream meets the spirit of the guidelines, but has not got everything sorted out yet, I think its still good to have an issue like this one to track progress at sorting it out :)

@cssobral2013 please feel free to keep reporting new font family addition suggestions :)

thlinard commented 6 years ago

@davelab6: Oh, I'm not a judge in the matter, I can only give advice. But it seems to me than a request like this without a GitHub repo doesn't have much chance to succeed, doesn't it?

Edit: I wish to add HKGrotesk too. https://fontlibrary.org/pt/font/hk-grotesk

@cssobral2013 It’s a good practice in the open-source world to keep each individual request focused on one issue. If you keep adding to this thread it will become useless to track stuff. Maintainers would never be able to close the ever-expanding report. To paraphrase one LibreOffice developer, it’d be like getting chewing gum under your shoe and not being able to remove it.

I really liked Orkney and start using on a project, but this font has an annoying problem with height. It's impossible to vertically center text without a workaround.

Orkney ❌ vs Libre Franklin ✅

If anyone is facing this, a possible workaround is using half-padding on bottom, like: padding: 0.5em 0.5em (0.5em)/2

I'd also like to see this added - the existing CDN for this font is pretty slow.
