[Lohit-devel-list] Announcing Alpha release 2.91.0 of lohit-devanagari from lohit2 project

[Pravin Satpute]

Hi All,

  It took more time than i thought initial but happy that now we are
clear with most of the things (feature file, AGL guidelines). Completely
rewritten Open type tables lohit-devanagari is now available.

Silent feature of this.
1. Supporting dev2 and deva both.
2. Following AGL
3. Feature file (Open type table) is separate than .sfd file. (Though i
have kept Open type tables in .sfd file as well but while building ttf
we import rules from .fea file)
4. Tested with Harfbuzz and Windows8 Uniscribe version (Will test with
other older platform before Beta release)
5. test-devanagari.txt is available (Dunno should we provide .pdf may be)

   Updated lohit project page [1] with the download links and other
information


  This is alpha release so need contribution for testing this. I will
soon build this for Fedora 20 and request some people using Devanagari
script regular to install this version. I will recommend to report bugs
on github [2], Fedora specifics bug can go to Fedora bugzilla [3]


  Thanks for people supporting and contributing in this.

Best Regards,
Pravin Satpute
