Hi,

----------------------------------------------------------
The desktop architects agreed to extend standard internationalized 
text layouts mechanisms and font management.  Adopt HarfBuzz as an 
open standard to compliment FreeType and Font Config. (HarfBuzz is 
an OpenType Layout engine.)
----------------------------------------------------------

There's a meeting between all the layout engine folks:

The outcomes of this meeting will be relevant to us. I'll try to keep
everyone updated.

cya,
