Update AUTHORS.txt
Roboto has a dual nature. It has a mechanical skeleton and the forms are largely geometric. At the same time, the font features friendly and open curves. While some grotesks distort their letterforms to force a rigid rhythm, Roboto doesn’t compromise, allowing letters to be settled into their natural width. This makes for a more natural reading rhythm more commonly found in humanist and serif types.
This version includes fixes for an issue with uni1EE1, a Vietnamese character in all styles, improves hinting with both Windows and FreeType hints in Bold and Bold Italic styles by adjusting bars to 2px tall in 14px and 15px, and reworks family naming metadata to follow Windows GDI naming conventions. It is used in Google Fonts (http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Roboto) as of 2013-07-31
