But it can't be a monolith. There ought to be minimal set of things
that must be in place and redisplay can't be one of those, or!?
By your standard ("does what 21.4 does"), getting antialiased fonts
working reasonably well is not in the minimal set.
In my opinion, though, it is. I believe that without Xft/Pango/GTK+
quality fonts we won't get any new users, in which case a public
release can only hurt our reputation for quality (such as it is at
this point, but why make it worse?)
That's only an opinion; if put to a vote, I'd probably vote against,
but I would obey the majority if they say to do 21.6 with whatever
we've got right now.
Regards,
Steve
