+The home page for the original SIL Gentium font family is
+http://scripts.sil.org/Gentium.
+
+The home page for this TeX package, gentium-tug, is http://tug.org/gentium.
+This TeX package consists of:
+
+1. The original (unaltered) GentiumPlus, GentiumBook, and other
+Gentium-family fonts in TrueType format, as developed by SIL and
+released under the OFL (see OFL.txt and OFL-FAQ.txt).
+
+2. Converted fonts in PostScript Type 1 format, released under the same
+terms. These incorporate the name "Gentium" by permission of SIL given
+to the TeX Users Group.
+
+3. ConTeXt, LaTeX and other supporting files under the Expat license,
+text given below (also at http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:Expat).
+
+4. Documentation: the TeX-specific documentation is in
+gentium.{tex,pdf}. We have also included the original documentation,
+fontlogs, and other files from the SIL distribution, entirely unaltered,
+in the Gentium*/ subdirectories here.
+
+The contributors are listed in the FONTLOG.txt files.
+
+
+ENCODINGS:
+=========
+The package provides font files needed for both Unicode XeTeX and LuaTeX
+as well as 8-bit engines such as pdfTeX and TeX (->dvips).
+
+For 8-bit engines the following encodings are available:
+- Latin:
+ ot1 OT1 - default encoding in TeX
+ ec T1 - for most European languages
+ texnansi LY1 - for most Western European languages
+ l7x L7x - for Baltic languages
+ qx QX - for Polish
+ t5 T5 - for Vietnamese
+ ts1 TS1 - TeX symbols (for LaTeX)
+
+- Greek:
+ agr (only supported in ConTeXt)
+ lgr (only supported in LaTeX)
+
+- Cyrillic:
+ t2a T2A
+ t2b T2B
+ t2c T2C
+ x2 X2
+
+

+TODO:
+====
+- check that there are no f-ligatures in the encodings X2, LGR
+ and possibly AGR
+
+- Add kerning pairs for Cyrillic.
+
+- Add more kerning pairs for accented Latin letters. Currently, there
+ are kerning pairs mostly for the combination of one accented letter
+ and a letter without accent. There are just several kerning pairs
+ for the combination of two accented letters, mostly useful for Czech
+ and Slovak.
+
+- Look at the letter Lcaron if the accent should be moved to the left
+ (reported to SIL).
+
+- The combination of two commas seems not to give quotedblbase in T1.
+ Check it and correct using lig file if needed.
+
+- when/if bold variants of Gentium are released,
+ either remove Gentium Basic or create a complete set.
