Please excuse my ignorance, and please correct me so I may learn, as I have no idea about fonts except that I simply them in my editors :)
The inspiration of M+ 1m + Pragmata Pro is very interesting and make for a powerful font.
Do you anticipate further font development, driven by the same code-generated workflow, attempting to tackle modernization of something like the venerable Misc Fixed 13pt, which needs an update for modern screens and/or resolutions?
Then, there's the Apple Menlo/Monaco, Ubuntu Mono and derivatives, as well as Consolas and its derivatives which tend to focus on wider glyphs , as opposed to the narrowness and (longer?) line-heights of similar fonts to M+ 1m / Pragmata Pro? It would be interesting to see if newer fonts can evolve from this approach.
My future work will be focused on spatial balance and glyph coverage. (I'd want to coverage ALL UNICODE POINTS of Latin/Greek/Cyrillic/IPA, thanks to the building script generating them will be much easier than using a conventional font editor: Just add a mark glyph and all combining glyphs using it will be automatically generated.)
Maybe I can make a library or toolchain after this font is almost completed, as a modernized METAFONT, which produces Opentype directly from your generation source code. And well, in that toolchain, i will not use PatEL since this language has not been documented yet.
