Unless there is a major bug in the current code, I think we should ship with it. We can still release a new package in a few weeks once you get your improvements in the CVS; besides, this will put less pressure on you.

Re: [ft-devel] 2.2.2

If you look at the ChangeLog, you'll see we've been doing a lot these last couple days to prepare the release. I just updated docs/CHANGES by the way :-) Now, we need to check that compilation works well on a broad range of platforms, that installation doesn't break a significant number of Linux distributions, as well as decide wether to call the next release 2.2.2 or 2.3 Very frankly, I'd favor 2.3, given the vast improvements in auto-hinting, the new LCD filtering features and the automatic unpatented hinter. What do people on this list think about it. Apart from that, I welcome the Bedhad's proposal to maintain the stable branch, it's really that we don't have much time, and CVS is really, really bad at decent branch management[1]. I really look forward doing more frequent releases. It seems the last one was about 7 months ago, and some distributions didn't catch up yet. Expect a releast tag in the CVS tonight or tomorrow. There, I said it !! Best Regards, - David Turner - The FreeType Project (www.freetype.org) [1] And yes, I tried git when working on Cairo, lost my work three times in a row; I'm a bit disgusted and won't try it again with FreeType until the developers fix the stupid interface, which apparently is very unlikely... PS: And just to correct something that was written previously, I'm not planning relocating to a different country just yet, at least not until a relatively distant future. On the other hand, I do work for a new employer: a company that recently held its official pajama day right in the middle of winter, how smart !! ;-) -- Pavel ___ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel ___ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel

Multiple Master fonts (I've sent mail twice to Jens without a reply, unfortunately) I'm aware of. In case he doesn't answer I'll look at it by myself.

I like git very much: Using the git on Savannah, the work with lilypond is really fun. And `gitk' (a git repository viewer) just rocks.
