This is from Jacob Poon's report of 2007-10,
https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106274
These are stylistic issues among Jacob's complaints, which
I dealt with directly. They are a little subjective. Some others aren't listed here because I don't know how to handle them.
The issue of the stroke width remains open... There are several stroke widths even in the ASCII range (compare the capital letters to the slash). I'm not sure how I want to handle that.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Tilde and slash in Mathematical Operators (U+2200-22FF) in all font variants have diagonal stroke terminators instead of horizontal or vertical, which does not fit the design in the rest of the font. Ironically, slash in FreeSerif is actually designed correctly for use in FreeSans. For that matter, Inverse lazy S (U+223E) in current font is more proper design for the tilde.
the inverse lazy s was the tilde. see below.
Made tilde into a normal tilde.
slash -- it was a bit thinner-- but many long lines are thin here
Partial differential (U+2202) in Oblique and BoldOblique fonts has uneven stroke weight within a glyph, which do not fit the designs in the rest of the respective fonts.
fixed
N-Ary summation (U+2211) in non-medium font variants have serifs, which do not fit the designs in the rest of the respective fonts. Furthermore, the glyphs in all font variants have the same weight.
fixed
Asterisk operator (U+2217) has a non-uniform stroke weight, which does not fit the design in the rest of the font. The bug does not exist in other font variants and families.
fixed (made a new one)
Square root (U+221A) in all font variants has non-uniform font weight within the glyph, and share the same font weight for bold and non-bold fonts, which do not fit the designs in the rest of the respective fonts. The bug does not exist in other font families.
fixed (made same width as fraction)
Logical or (U+2228) has diagonal stroke terminators instead of horizontal or vertical, which does not fit the design in the rest of the font. The bug does not exist in other font variants and families.
already fixed
