There seems to have been a flurry of packaging activity on these over the
past week. I am slightly concerned that some of them don't seem to be
following the naming guidelines for font packages.

As an example, OFL Sorts Mill Goudy seems to have been rushed from first
packaging to release in just six days, but there is no foundry name,
although Google seems to be treated as upstream for this and several other
fonts.

Are we going to start using "google" as a foundry name, or take the
original source of these, where possible?
