@mightybart how this can be evaluated? Seems like popular request. Maybe you have a look and we kindly ask some Cyrillic users?

Hey, thank you for the great work so far!

In short, you need to follow Google Fonts guidelines https://googlefonts.github.io/gf-guide/

I'm sure GF can provide Cyrillic typographers to have a look. Also, we should move this to a separate branch or work on this elsewhere, before we release anything.

I'm currently working on v2.0.1 fixing some core issues #49 #46 #44 #32 and can't really work on Cyrillic now. But the Google Fonts team should help you with the process. Since you have to go through some backwards compatibility checks, please wait until I release v2.0.1 (I will do this ASAP). We should compare the Cyrillic version to that rather than the current v2.0.0. It's not a massive change, just a couple of new characters and updated font info.

Also, is there a Glyphs source?

Hello! There is no .glyphs sources.
I work in Fontlab, but it has "export in .glyphs" thing. So i can try to do an export

Is there any progress on this? Space Grotesk is such a sharp font, and having to let it go because of a lack of Cyrillic characters is disappointing.
I am not a typographer, but I do speak a Cyrillic language (Serbian) and have a deep interest in typography. If there is any way I can lend a hand, do let me know.

Indeed I will. I wasn't sure if all the characters were completed. Are all the weights and characters there? Let me check myself...

...it looks great, many thanks for your hard work.

Why hasn't this been added to Google Fonts officially? Do they need to review it?
