Unfortunately Google are not distributing the source, which Debian has
promised to do as part of the Debian Free Software Guidelines. We will
need to wait until you release it.

When you update the copy on your website, would it be possible for you
to create a reproducible build path with a Makefile or similar?
Currently Debian is just shipping the pre-built binary .ttf file so we
aren't sure if it is possible for our users to modify the font source
(I guess thats the spiro plates?) and rebuild the font with their
modifications.
