With sufficient prodding, I've finally managed to build a release version
of the various fontconfig related libraries. Please find them at the
fontconfig web site:
http://fontconfig.org
(that's the same as http://nexp.cs.pdx.edu/fontconfig if your DNS can't
find fontconfig.org yet).
Because it includes version 2.0 of Xft, and because Fontconfig replaces
functionality found in version 1 of Xft, I've labeled the package
as version 2.0. It contains:
Fontconfig 1.0.1
Xft 2.0
Xft1 1.1
Xrender 1.1 (supports Render protocol 0.5)
Thanks go to all of those involved in this release, in particular:
+ Julisuz Chroboczek and Raph Levien for the original vision
of client-side fonts.
+ Lars Knoll and Brad Hughes for early integration of Xft into
the Qt toolkit.
+ Chris Blizzard and Brian Stell for help getting fontconfig ready
to support Mozilla, and Chris for his work porting Mozilla to
Xft2 and fontconfig.
+ Owen Taylor for help integrating fontconfig, Xft2 and Pango,
and for help testing the release candidates.
+ David Dawes and the XFree86 project for the window system.
+ Dirk Hohndel for initial prodding on anti-aliased text.
+ David Turner and the FreeType project for a free font engine.
+ SuSE, Compaq and HP for supporting my work on this library.
