Hello everyone,
Here is a status update on the GSoC project:
1. First version of the regression script is done from my side and
submitted for review.
2. The integration for the script in the CI is complete and submitted for
review.
3. macOS builds for Autotools and meson have been added and
Freedesktop.org is down for more than 12 hours now
On running "make devel" in freetype source it says something like "make:
Nothing to be done for 'devel'". So, I presume static linking is not
working properly right now in autotools ...

Hello Werner Alexei,
I just wanted to know if it is possible to compile the FreeType demos with
static linking?
, etc.)
This will be completed by the end of July.
Thanks

Hello,
I was a little confused about, What file should I modify in the FreeType
source to produce a small but noticeable difference in rendering. Please
share your suggestions
thanks

this query out for me.
Thanks,

used that whether it is allowed or kind of
legal to send MR before the coding period or not. But I think now there is
no such issue with that. We will try our best to have this project's
discussion in a constructive way, will for the best:)

Ok got it, but still confused over the thing that whether we have to follow
the traditional method all the time i.e. xvfbRunAndScreenShot, and check
some enhancement in it
hello mentors,
I had found the same problem as Aman is facing some days before actually, I
forgot to intimate about this thing earlier,
inside test-font.sh, there is a function written xvfbRunAndScreenShot, it
will show error and only blank png's will be generated, as far as there is
no
hello,
I just want to comment on Aman's query regarding running the framework
locally, for running it locally
1. firstly you need to follow some instructions which are given on this
page -
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/freetype-devel/2020-07/msg00147.html
.
2. one thing
Alright! thanks for clearing that up :)

roject from this project itself, I
agree that the engagement (so far seen) in other projects are likely to be
less and it can be an option.
and if this is the case what you want me to do to separate our working
domains will totally be decided after the mentor's remark over this,
whatever they will say I am ok with that thing.
Well commenting about the motive of GSoC, it's more about getting students
engagement towards the OSS so that the number of contributors can be
increased, and can get some experience in OS development on a good level.

But again thanks for your useful feedback, I have marked your words and
will surely update the draft ASAP, and if you find any more improvements
please give intimation.

And for the proposal, do FreeType demand any specific questions to be
answered in the proposal, as some other orgs do, or it should be kept
general i.e. as mentioned in GSoC guidelines

This is my opinion about it, I might be wrong, Please correct me if I have
misunderstood the thing, and do suggest your opinion about this

hey Werner,
In the last few days, I have come across Freetype's Documentation and
previous contributions on this project(GSoC), what I have observed is-
- Most of the things are already implemented in it, which means we don't
need to start anything from scratch we just need to do some
Hello,
As directed by you i have tried all the things and i think I have gathered
some good amount of info,
As far as CI part is concerned which was earlier not compatible with
Savannah, but as whole codes moved to gitlab, now we have probably multiple
ways to implement that, either we can use
