Format of public.openTypeMeta

[schriftgestalt]

I think public.openTypeMeta should contain a list instead a dict. See: fonttools/fonttools#2345

[benkiel]

@moyogo this was your part of the spec: are you ok with this being a list and not a dict?

[benkiel]

(also, would this would be a breaking change, so we'd need to put it in UFO4, no?)

[moyogo]

@benkiel yes, @schriftgestalt is correct. It should have been a dict [Edit: list].

[schriftgestalt]

(Just to be clear, it should be a list, not a dict.)

[benkiel]

@moyogo @anthrotype Looking back at this, because it's a public key, I don't think we need to do it in UFO4, but this would be breaking to go to list. Would you be ok with changing the definition here now, or would you rather wait for a UFO number bump?

[anthrotype]

I'd vote to wait for version bump since I haven't seen concrete use cases for the duplicate tags yet, and breaking existing projects would be worse

[anthrotype]

and fonttools meta implementation hasn't been fixed either...

[benkiel]

Got it. Cool.
