Argh, sorry - missed that; but it seems that the other repo also linked here in
this bug report got some updates since its initial mentioning (when it wasn't complete
yet), and contains now all sources (FWICT, not really a font developer):

https://github.com/googlefonts/RobotoMono/tree/main/sources

and also the built fonts, e.g.:
https://github.com/googlefonts/RobotoMono/tree/main/fonts/ttf

would that be enough?

cheers,
Thomas
