Miriam Libre: Version 2.000 added

[simoncozens]

NOTE: This is my fork, as the designer appears to have abandoned the original.

Taken from the upstream repo https://github.com/simoncozens/Miriam-Libre at commit googlefonts/Miriam-Libre@72606f9.

I've just merged #7530, should we block that one?

Would you like to continue hosting the font in your repository? Or should we create a new one under googlefonts?

[simoncozens]

7530 is a different font (Mina).

If we are happy with the fork I would prefer it to be under googlefonts.

[vv-monsalve]

7530 is a different font (Mina).

Great! Got confused by the names ':)

If we are happy with the fork I would prefer it to be under googlefonts.

There are small spacing and kerning regressions (common pairs likeTO,Yo, Ty).
@davelab6 could you please create the googlefonts repo?

[davelab6]

Taken from the upstream repo simoncozens/Miriam-Libre

If we are happy with the fork I would prefer it to be under googlefonts.

Yes please xfer to me and ping me and I'll move it

To the main regression issue:

Sadly the kerning seems to be regressed quite badly, I would prefer to retain the kerning - but the hinting issues described in #1092 seem worse... @m4rc1e could you help explain more about why the kerning regressed? Or perhaps @simoncozens you can tell :)

Was this totally re-spaced, or was kerning just dropped?

[simoncozens]

It's probable that babelfont tossed the kerning. I'll check.

[simoncozens]

No babelfont involved here, just user error; when I merged the two glyphs sources I didn't include the kerning from the bold master.

Thanks, Simon.

Now, it would only be a matter of transferring it to googlefonts repo.

[simoncozens]

@davelab6 you already have a fork of the upstream Miriam-Libre so I can't transfer this to you. Delete your fork, and I'll transfer this one.

Also when that is done I will rerelease with correct GitHub URLs in OFL/font/etc.

[vv-monsalve]

I've added the -- Needs Upstream Resolution label as a reminder until this is solved

[m4rc1e]

Agree with Viv. LGTM
