 Posting an update for the continued work on the Font Library:

 - Work on the REST API refactor continues; significant progress has been
 made over the past few weeks and we're still planning to merge the
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57688 feature branch] we're
 working from in time for release with GB 17.6
 - Created a [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57818 PHP filter]
 to allow extenders to turn off the Font Library UI
 - [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/55280 Discussed the need
 for custom capabilities and permissions] for managing fonts
 - Created a [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57697 PHP hook]
 for filtering where font assets are stored
 - Added a function that allows extenders to
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/54701 unregister a font
 collection]
 - Improved the default [https://github.com/WordPress/google-fonts-to-
 wordpress-collection Google Fonts font collection] by enabling WOFF2 file
 formats and tidied up the repo
 - Created a [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57736 new schema]
 for Font Collections
 - Fixed a [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57817 client-side
 bug] where the font variant list wasn't updating after installing a new
 font

 It would still be great to have more feedback on the REST API. The
 proposed design has been implemented in
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57688 this feature branch],
 so this would be the best place to review.

 Once the API changes have been merged into Gutenberg, we can then update
 the docs and start looking at the items listed in the "nice to have" list
 on the [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/55277 tracking
 issue].
