Ping following the discussion at Homebrew/homebrew-cask-fonts#2246 β what needs to happen for this to move forward? I'm happy to help out if I'm given the right pointers :)

@rayshan Hello! I found that this font is beautiful and almost support all Traditional Chinese characters!
My friend and I would like to help if it is possible?
What could we do to add the missing pieces?
Sorry that if it sounds too layman or rookie here.

License is "free": http://mplus-fonts.osdn.jp/mplus-outline-fonts/index-en.html#license
Yeah, that is not an acceptable libre license, sadly.
I guess if someone else redistributes them under OFL and is willing to indemnify Google, I could accept that version's Latin part.
Serving CJK is not currently possible, although https://github.com/googlei18n/TachyFont is worth keeping an eye on :)

I see, thanks. The author Coji Morishita has indicated willingness to submit to Google Fonts previously: http://osdn.jp/projects/mplus-fonts/forums/3403/31246/. I just pinged that thread again. Let's see if we hear back.

I also replied on the thread. This looks very positive :)

Hi @davelab6, I got in touch with the author Coji, and he asked me to help him prepare a new repo with the latest TESTFLIGHT-060
release and with OFL license. The repo is here:
https://github.com/rayshan/mplus-fonts
I also asked Coji to sign the Google CLA and he's done so. I think we're ready to proceed. Can you please take a look?

Awesome, thanks for your work on this @rayshan :) I filed rayshan/mplus-fonts#1
The family table naming scheme needs fixing up, as described in http://designwithfontforge.com/en-US/Font_Info_&_Metadata.html
from fonts.
You're welcome! I'll change the license file and relay the message about fixing the table naming scheme.

Hello all,
I'm supporting maintenance of the scripts. I've prepared git repository to build M+ outline fonts. https://github.com/mandel59/mplus_build
I'm at work on modifying the scripts.

Whether weight of thin fonts is 100 or 250? According to Google Fonts, weight of Roboto Thin is 100, but the table says value >= 250 and <= 900 in steps of 50.
from fonts.
Roboto is wrong at the moment.

@mandel59 thanks π

Ping @davelab6 - the family table naming scheme changes are ready for your review here:
rayshan/mplus-fonts#2
from fonts.
Could you permit that the weight of thin is 100? I've examined whether there are fonts whose weight is 250 in Google Fonts, but I couldn't have found such fonts. Fonts that have more than one thinner weight gives the thinnest weight to be 100 or 200. This might be because CSS currently doesn't allow font-weight values to be 250. I've also found GTK+ apps using Pango work badly with such odd weight.

Friendly happy 2017 ping for @davelab6 and team. Still very much looking forward to having this beautiful font available on Google Fonts. Let me know if there's anything I can do to nudge it along.
from fonts.
It's already available via Early Access.
from fonts.
@kyoshino thanks! It's also here:
https://fonts.google.com/earlyaccess
How did I miss the early access program?! It only has the Japanese character set, not Latin. So this issue is still valid.
from fonts.
M+ has graduated from Early Access. https://twitter.com/googlefonts/status/1032724526851936256

@kyoshino thanks! Looks like only 1p is available in Japanese and Latin characters. Monospace variant is not. We're half way there. I will leave this issue open.

@davelab6 spoke to Coji, he recommends:
- M+ MN Type-1
- M+ P Type-1
- M+ C Type-1
- M+ C Type-2
Coji also sends his regards to you. I don't think he's on GitHub. Happy to continue to relay messages and help in any way.

closing this in favor of #3374 which is linked to PR
