Hi,

I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.78.0.
This release merges some experimental branches, and fixes a few of the outstanding bugs.

Changes:

* Instead of using expanded fonts, just calculate the expanded
  width of glyphs where needed, and carry expand info in the
  glyph nodes (all based on Hans' suggestions). All font expansion
  functions are disabled and most are removed.

* New, faster (but limited) direct node access from lua, see
  the manual for details

* Support for Apple Advanced Typography (AAT) information in
  fonts is dropped

* Extended build script for mingw/msys (includes 64-bit support)

* Various patches from/via Akira Kakuta for better Win32
  integration

* Fixes for some bugs in de pdfscanner library (mostly related
  to inline images)

* Maximum hyphenated word length is now 64Kb characters.

* Various patches from Khaled Hosny and Luigi Scarso for the
  luafontloader subsystem

* Fix for a crash when re-dumping formats

* Fix for a Selene unicode library bug where some characters in
  UTF-8 were incorrectly flagged as having the 'Space' property

* Some smaller fixes


The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual:
