Google Fonts hosted variable font / wrong name #41

@RosaWagner I just noticed that the variable font users download from Google Fonts is named with just [wght] but actually includes all axes. I thought since the website still features only 9 styles and not the full family the variable should be subsetted. Or if not then perhaps you should rename it with the other axes included.

We don't have the hand on the tool making the upload package for Google, but in any case we can't subset the font now that it is already published. The files are renamed according to what the axis registry supports. In the meanwhile I am trying to set up the standard for the slant axis, but definite answers are very slow to come: https://github.com/googlefonts/gftools/issues/295

I see. Let's see how long it will take to come to a conclusion about the registry!
