Suggestions for fonts-jetbrains-mono

[Rogério Brito <rbrito@ime.usp.br>]

Yes, yes, I know that the fonts-jetbrains-mono has not yet been accepted,
but I just noticed a few things that I would like to see in the package:

1 - please, split the version without ligatures (the ones with NL in their
    names) from the package with the ligatures. It will be more convenient
    for our users (and for those that prefer lighter installs).
2 - please, split the packages in with respect to the format of the fonts
    (truetype, woff, woff2). I expect that to be better to satisfy the
    necessities of packages that, in the future, come to depend on the
    appropriate font formats and, of course, also result in smaller/leaner
    packages/installs.
3 - there is a new version of the fonts (the one submitted to the NEW queue
    is 1.0.4, while upstream has already released 1.0.6); the command
    `uscan --report-status` also agrees with the observation above. :-)
4 - I cloned the repo from
    https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-team/fonts-jetbrains-mono and saw that it
    has no tags corresponding to upstream and debian releases. Please add
    them and, if possible, adopt a standard gbp branching scheme.
5 - I submitted a bug report just a few moments ago upstream [*] to provide a
    changelog (I hope that they do) and shipping that with the package would
    be superb, especially as the font matures...

That being said, thank you very much for packaging this font. It is
appreciated (especially for typesetting code with (Xe(La))TeX).


Thanks,

Rogério Brito.
