I got another update this morning from the team on the progress of the
Rev engine for Linux, and this one's for Richmond:

With the screenshot Mark Waddingham noted:

To be fair, the visual difference for roman text is mostly nil
(or at least will be when I've fixed the slight difference in
baselines that seems to have crept in).

Yer, but . . . the reall "fun" will be when I get home and try the
Sanskrit2003 font on Linux . . .

err . . . wait a minute . . . no it won't as I have a Studio licence so
no access to DP builds;
Heather very kindly extended my licence to Sept.; whether that will
encompass the 4.5 release I don't know ????

All Enterprise licensees get access to DP builds automatically, but since you're more enthused about testing the new font handling than anyone else around I would suggest you drop a note to [email protected] to see if you can get access to the DPs on this round to help out.

No rush at the moment though: so far all I've seen are screen shots of the in-progress builds as the team works toward the DP. Not sure when the next DP will be posted, but thus far none have had the new font handling, so it's not like you've been missing out while you were traveling. Hopefully the next DP will up soon....
