Tomas, if nobody else steps here (Andrew?), I will try to keep the win32 pango backend up to date with the unix one. But I will not start working on that until we start regularly using the pango backend (I guess that it means just after 1.2). I will be very happy if somebody else did the work, as I was hopping to do some work on typographic issues after the Xft work. In the order, I'm hopping for: WYSIWYG, remplacing our line justification by the total-fit one (the same algorithm that Knuth did for TeX), adding (copying it from TeX or somebody else) a word breaker (possibly integrate it in pango), kerning pairs, margin kernings, and investigate font expansion, interletter spacing and rivers detection.
