Cyrillic & Greek support

[pauldhunt]

There have been some requests on the Adobe Type blog asking for Cyrillic at least. This thread is to track interest for both Cyrillic and Greek.

Are you inviting +1's now? If so, +1 for Greek support.

Ha! I thought that there was a ‘roadmap’ feature on GitHub, but it seems that the issues tracker is usually used to indicate planned features, so I thought I would log an item to show that this is something that we are planning ... down the road. Speaking of +1’s, I wish there was just a counter with a button that would count both plusses and minuses so as to get a better indication of interest without having to spam everyone following the project with silly +1 emails.

+1 on the +1 feature

Hello guys,
Any progress or plans on Cyrillic?

[pauldhunt]

Progress is being made. Getting the Cyrillic proofed by Russian natives and incorporating their input into the design currently.

Hi Paul,
Do you need any alpha/beta testers for Cyrillic? If you do, I'd love to help :)

Hello,

I 'd really like to see Greek coming to Source Code Pro. My default font on all of my terminals and editors is Source Code Pro and as a Greek developer, spending more than 8 hours per day writing code, I would really like to see Greek support. I would be really happy if I could help you out with that, as far as I can.

Thanks and congratulations on that font. Excellent work.

The Greek and Cyrillic for Source Sans is all but done. However, it will take some time to adapt the proportional letter forms to Source Code. Hopefully I will be able to release the Source Sans fonts with Greek and Cyrillic soon and you can then preview the designs that will be adapted for SCP.

Just throwing in another +1 for Greek letters / math symbols, this would essentially make Source Code the be-all-end-all of monospace fonts for me.
