+Overview of changes leading to 0.9.32
+Thursday, July 17, 2014
+=====================================
+
+- Apply Arabic shaping features in spec order exactly.
+- Another fix for Mongolian free variation selectors.
+- For non-Arabic scripts in Arabic shaper apply 'rlig' and 'calt'
+ together.
+- Minor adjustment to U+FFFD logic.
+- Fix hb-coretext build.
+
+
+Overview of changes leading to 0.9.31
+Wednesday, July 16, 2014
+=====================================
+
+- Only accept valid UTF-8/16/32; we missed many cases before.
+- Better shaping of invalid UTF-8/16/32. Falls back to
+ U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER now.
+- With all changes in this release, the buffer will contain fully
+ valid Unicode after hb_buffer_add_utf8/16/32 no matter how
+ broken the input is. This can be overriden though. See below.
+- Fix Mongolian Variation Selectors for fonts without GDEF.
+- Fix minor invalid buffer access.
+- Accept zh-Hant and zh-Hans language tags. hb_ot_tag_to_language()
+ now uses these instead of private tags.
+- Build fixes.
+- New API:
+ * hb_buffer_add_codepoints(). This does what hb_buffer_add_utf32()
+ used to do, ie. no validity check on the input at all. add_utf32
+ now replaces invalid Unicode codepoints with the replacement
+ character (see below).
+ * hb_buffer_set_replacement_codepoint()
+ * hb_buffer_get_replacement_codepoint()
+ Previously, in hb_buffer_add_utf8 and hb_buffer_add_utf16, when
+ we detected broken input, we replaced that with (hb_codepoint_t)-1.
+ This has changed to use U+FFFD now, but can be changed using these
+ new API.
+
+
+Overview of changes leading to 0.9.30
+Wednesday, July 9, 2014

+New build system:
+
+- All unneeded code is all disabled by default,
+
+- Uniscribe and CoreText shapers can be enabled with their --with options,

+Moreover, ICU support is now build into a separate library:
+libharfbuzz-icu.so, and a new harfbuzz-icu.pc is shipped for it.
+Distros can enable ICU now without every application on earth
+getting linked to via libharfbuzz.so.
+
+For distros I recommend that they make sure they are building --with-glib
+--with-freetype --with-cairo, --with-icu, and optionally --with-graphite2;
+And package harfbuzz and harfbuzz-icu separately.
+

+
+API changes:
+- hb_shape() and related APIs now abort if buffer direction is
+ HB_DIRECTION_INVALID. Previously, hb_shape() was calling
+ hb_buffer_guess_segment_properties() on the buffer before
+ shaping. The heuristics in that function are fragile. If the
+ user really wants the old behvaior, they can call that function
+ right before calling hb_shape() to get the old behavior.
+- hb_blob_create_sub_blob() always creates sub-blob with
+ HB_MEMORY_MODE_READONLY. See comments for the reason.
