Any committer is allowed to create a development branch, preferably with
some advance warning. The thing is: the ASF doesn't give away commit
rights just upon request. Committership has to be earned by regular
contributions. See: http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html
What we can do
understood; thanks for the process info;

support:
- complex scripts (e.g., arabic, indic)
- advanced typographic font table support (e.g., gpos/gsub/jstf, ...)
- writing-mode,
