the keyboard of Laurent ROCHER:

Hi Laurent,  Glad to hear you are still monitoring things here, even if 
you haven't time for working on it.  If we get too far off base, you can 
  warn us anyway!

Maybe you know the answer to whether anyone with developer/commit access 
can make a new release, or if it takes an extra permission?  I'd be 
willing to learn the process.

I'll work on the Text problem as soon as I can, but if someone has some 
time to look at it, I'm willing to share my code.  I haven't been 
successful to create a small test case from scratch, and I haven't yet 
tried the other direction, of removing code from my application to 
reduce it to a smaller test case.

I don't know what is the Color problem, have to look back in the list, I 
guess, if no one else fixes it, after I get the Text problem fixed (if I 
  even can).

Likely we could test as a developer build, by just making a PPM for 
people to test with, and then go straight to a 1.0 release.
