Hey guys! Thought you might be interested in this project that claims to be
4-5x faster than font-rs and even faster than Pathfinder!. I would have
loved to integrate the code in FreeType, but 1) I am not competent enough,
2) I got exams, so I'll save that opportunity for the future

David, We are waiting for your input regarding the migration.

So, with the issue porting nearly done, I would like to start a discussion
about the structure/workflow of the gitlab project.
So, Here are some of my suggestions/questions:
1. Rename the git project from freetype2 to freetype(i.e. Use
gitlab.com/freetype/freetype instead of

Hi guys! I made a rudimentary prototype of how the glyph regression
checking webpage could look like.
It would be great if you could provide some feedback(what should I
add/remove/change etc), so that sarthak can then implement it (and I can
mentor him).
Mockup:
FDO went out again today, so I decided to create mirrors of main FT repos
on gitlab.com too (we already have Savannah)

But when the library source changes we would need to update the contents of
that folder with the latest from docwriter, right?
I would say this would be a bit extreme, just keep an eye on the

As discussed with the maintainers, the freetype.org domain hosting has been
changed to gitlab pages, along with cloudflare CDN.
Currently the gitlab pages are hosted on gitlab.com, via this repo:

Nope
The CI executes automatically on each commit to `master`.
The job name "pages" is special in that it makes gitlab to treat our repo
as a website and deploy it after the build.
If you want, we can also extend this in
dcode the tag of the
latest freetype release that they have to be built for.

Well, fair enough, I guess. What's the worst that can happen? Some hacker
get's to read about freetype. It's a win-win according to me來來.

Hmm, you have a point. It's not really necessary to update docs on each
commit, maybe we can mark the new APIs as in-progress and add a switch to
show only released

I tend to agree. Its not like we get any bot-spam on the mailing list
