FWIW, I have packaged the latest snapshot of the SVN repository for Debian:

Hi,

I'm still alive, despite some close calls.

I agree completely. 

At this moment, I have other priorities.  That is life.

It is 2024 now. It is sad to see that a lot of fixes are sitting in the cold SVN and can't be used in Linux distros.

Any chance of a release this year?

I hear you.

It is a bigger proposition than it seems,  I have to find the time, and that is evidently a bigger proposition than it seems.  Progress has been made, though.

Three months without any changes in SVN and yet another year since the last message in this thread - maybe now is the right time to publish a new release?

I hear you.

I worked on it already today.

Well, maybe a public beta release would help already.

Hi,

On the download page I can see that the latest release was still made in 2012. I would like to use this font in a PDF generator as a dependency, but it would make more sense to have the latest fixes in it too. But I would rather not do a build myself when it is less complicated just to download an official release.

Could you please make newer releases?

Thanks in advance.
