@Em42: you are right there are some problems with the spacing, but unfortunaly i don't know how to solve this. each letter has one unit space on the left side of the stems. i believe the little peaks cause this effect.
Unfortunately only the left side bearing can be set in FontStruct, not the right one: that's why letters with the peaks on the right have a (visually) larger right side bearing.
Anyway Rob Meek announced elsewhere that the control for the right side bearing is near, so it will be possible to solve this problem soon.
@Em42 ... nearER (than kerning support) = sooner than possibly never. it'll be a while yet — weeks rather than days. i like this FontStruction a lot as well by the way and i can see that support for an adjustable RSB would really help.
Nicely done. At smaller sizes, I think the lowercase "o" may be too similar to the "a", but other than that you've built a nice consistency throughout.

I think there are some issues with letterspacing (the space between a and b for example) but the letterform design is really brilliant.
are there any suggestions how to solve it?

And Rob, upcoming control of the right sidebearing makes me salivate, too!
