[Lohit-devel-list] [Announce] Release 2.91.0 (Alpha) version of Lohit Odia

[Pravin Satpute]

Hi All,

    As indicated earlier with an emails [1] regarding work on Lohit
Odia. Glad to announce that we have completed first stage for Lohit Odia.

*   Following are **important points:*

  * Followed Unicode specifications.
  * Re-writing all GSUB rules.
  * Open type rules are available in .fea file for easy re-usability.
  * Feature file compiled with AFDKO.
  * Supports 'orya' and 'ory2' opentype specifications tag.
  * Developer friendly glyphs names with AGL syntax format.
  * Corrected glyph class for all glyphs. 
  * Improved shape of ka-viramasignodia-taodia.
  * Added Glyph positioning rules for below based matras.
  * Test file available with release tarball.
  * Auto testing support with harfbuzz hb-shape.Tested with Harfbuzz and
    Uniscribe (W8 and XP)

   In next release we have to work on couple of bugs. Still one major
things remain is adding Latin support, it might take long time.

  This is alpha release and definitely going to have few issues. Need
your help for testing it. Download links are available at Lohit project
[2] page with name lohit-odia*2.91.0. Direct TTF also available on [3].
Feel free to report issues on lohit git [4]

    I would like to give special thanks Manoj Giri for his help in
testing and Shilpa for working on GSUB rewriting task.

Thanks,
Pravin Satpute
