Thankfully Paratype has now kindly listened to community input and made
a release of the quality PT Sans family under the OFL 1.1:

http://www.fontstock.com/public/PTSans_OFL.zip

Can you please adjust your proposed package to this upstream release
under our recommended community-approved license?

Thanks !
