May I ask you, Dmitry, what are your concerns with introducing an external logger? Obviously, the goal is to improve the overall situation for everyone or (at least) keep things equally fine as they are at the moment. Following our discussion here, it seems to me as if changes would affect you negatively which should (obviously) be avoided. Necessity aside (who cares if it's necessary if someone else does it (properly) and it has no negative effect on anyone), what are negative consequences for you personally or for FreeType in general and how can they be avoided/tackled/justified/eased? @Yash: sorry for spamming your thread, but it seems as if you question has sparked some conversation here :P _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
