So you can't use AGG since you don't have the rights to contribute it under
OCA terms.
Also I don't think we want to swap out pisces and start to re-invent things.
Better to improve what we already have

Seems very interesting ... I just looked at the documentation.
AGG code would be worth to look at but somebody should check if
their license is compatible with openjdk license terms.
I'm not a lawyer, so take this with a grain of salt, but the most up
to date code base does not seem compatible, however
the lightweight rasterizer I pointed you at is under the LGPL, so it
_should_ be compatible.
I have memories that the rasterization techinique is coming from
libfreetype, so that's another one that might be worth
looking at (and I guess OpenJDK already depends on it to handle fonts
under Linux? not sure)
