At DM we are close to releasing the first hinted versions of Light, Light Ita, Medium, Medium Ita. Unless I have missed it, is this naming issue still undecided?
Although these fonts will still be in beta (and have 'Beta' in the font name) it would be a good time to decide how they are to be style-grouped. I guess the final decision will ultimately be made by Mark?
