Heads up on Pango HEAD



Pango HEAD now is using fontconfig and Xft2:

Notes:

 * A 'fcpackage' source tarball containing both of these can 
   be found at:

   http://keithp.com/fonts/

 * Red Hat RPMS can be found at:

   http://people.redhat.com/otaylor/xft-rpms/

 * If you aren't interested in bleeding-edge Pango developement, you should
   be using use the pango-1-0 branch of Pango.

 * Until we get a Win32 port of fontconfig, the pango-1-0 branch
   will also be needed on Windows.

 * The fontconfig library is now used for both the Xft and FT2
   backends. mini-xft is gone. The font configuration file is
   found in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf

Regards,
                                        Owen
