Hi Gioele,

claimed to be Karolina Lach on both Google Fonts (official release
website) and Sorkin Type's website. However the licence and the rest of
the documentation say that the font is (c) Sorkin Type. For this reason
I wrote the name of the designer in the package description and I have
left the licence text untouched. Is this the correct way to go?

as Jonas already pointed out, the Author and the Copyright Holder of a
work are not necessarily identical. There are e.g. some GNU projects
that require copyright assignment from code authors. The relevant part,
however, is the Copyright, whereas the Authorship is merely a nice
extra information (unless the license requires to explicitely credit
the Authors).

Thank you for the clarification. Given that I have not found a "Author" field, I suppose that what I have done is all one can do.

Cheers,
