Actually current plan is to get 1.8 out in about a month. Yes!
It would be nice if someone could test and update the patch to git master. I can commit after that then.
I also want to see what kind of filtering control, if any, Windows and OS X native APIs provide. Is there any hope of even implementing these new APIs for those font backends or it will remain a FreeType-only thing? Not that it's a deal breaker, not at all. Just want to know.
Thanks for the comments.
