Not that I am especially font-centric, but I see this as an easy entry
to the Debian packaging system without having to deal with compilation
or architectures. Just installing files may be a nice first step.

So, I have published the package to mentors.debian.net but it has not
sent me a feedback email yet. The file
fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3_amd64.mentors.upload contains the following
output repeated multiple times:

Successfully uploaded fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3.dsc to
mentors.debian.net for mentors.
Successfully uploaded fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3.tar.xz to
mentors.debian.net for mentors.
Successfully uploaded fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3_all.deb to
mentors.debian.net for mentors.
Successfully uploaded fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3_amd64.buildinfo to
mentors.debian.net for mentors.
Successfully uploaded fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3_amd64.changes to
mentors.debian.net for mentors.

As it is not clear to me why the package does not appear in "My pakages"
nor the global package list, I propose to start the review using the
following files that I host on a personal server:

https://microjoe.org/fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3.tar.xz
https://microjoe.org/fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3.orig.tar.gz

These were manually scp'ed to the server, so many files are missing;
probably the signature stuff, I have reworked my OpenPGP key to include
my current From: address in a new uid). Maybe I can send you the
fonts-jetbrains-mono_1.0.3.dsc as well if you can import my just-updated
key from SKS servers that should contain the correct identities.

Please let me know if anything is missing (should we add mentors list in
CC? stop using this bug for exchanging?), as I am quite new to all of
this despite trying hard to comply to the wiki guides.

Ciao,

Romain.
