Hi Caleb and thank you for the kind offer! And remember Khaled is still kicking
around the LO project ;-)
Khaled did the HarfBuzz integration extending work by Martin Hosken and Tim
Eves from SIL, and capitalizing on the Graphite font feature support where
LibreOffice has not yet implemented complete OpenType support.
As yet the OT support remains incomplete compared to the Graphite font
features--meaning that eliminating the deployed Graphite enabled Linux
Libertine G and Linux Biolinum G fonts will break documents that had made use
of them.
No expectation that upstream would agree to maintain both Graphite and
OpenType--but that would be ideal--maybe the SIL mavens could be persuaded to
lend a hand and Graphite enable a Libertinus G build?
Maybe László has some of his notes on the original Graphite effort?
