FONTLOG for Libertinus
---------------------
This file provides detailed information on the Libertinus font software. This
information should be distributed along with the Libertinus fonts and any
derivative works.
Basic Font Information
----------------------
Libertinus fonts is a fork of the Linux Libertine and Linux Biolinum fonts that
started as an OpenType math companion of the Libertine font family, but grown
as a full fork to address some of the bugs in the fonts.
The family consists of:
* Libertinus Serif: forked from *Linux Libertine*.
* Libertinus Sans: forked from *Linux Biolinum*.
* Libertinus Mono: forked from *Linux Libertinus Mono*.
* Libertinus Math: an OpenType math font for use in OpenType math-capable
applications like LuaTeX, XeTeX or MS Word 2007+.
Libertinus development is currently hosted on:
http://github.com/khaledhosny/libertinus
Feature requests, bug reports and patches should be directed to our issue
tracker.
Information for Contributors
----------------------------
Libertinus is released under the OFL 1.1 - http://scripts.sil.org/OFL For
information on what you're allowed to change or modify, consult the OFL-1.1.txt
and OFL-FAQ.txt files. The OFL-FAQ also gives a very general rationale and
various recommendations regarding why you would want to contribute to the
project or make your own version of the font.

17 May 2017 (Khaled Hosny) <Libertinus> Version 6.4
- Fix broken extensibles of the left square bracket in the math font.
12 May 2017 (Khaled Hosny) <Libertinus> Version 6.3
- Add U+231C-231Fi and U+2A7D-2A7E to the math font.

sup/superscript glyphs as they don’t look good besides being incomplete and
inconsistent.

- Drop optical bounds (‘opbd’, ‘rtbd’ and ‘lfbd’) features as they were
incomplete and virtually unsupported.
- Fix text mark placement below O and o.

22 Jan 2016 (Khaled Hosny) <Libertinus> Version 6.1
- Renamed the fonts from Libertine to Libertinus to be complaint with the
Reserved Font Name clause of Linux Libertine license. Thanks to Frédéric Wang

18 Jan 2016 (Khaled Hosny) <Libertine> Version 6.0
First release of the forked Libertine fonts, changes since the fork include:
- New Libertine Math font.
- Dropped the use of Unicode PUA for alternate glyphs in favour of making them
encoded.
- Dropped the TrueType versions of the fonts.
- Dropped the Romanian-specific cedilla/comma substitution, it is no longer
recommended to do this at font feature level.

- Fixed sans interrobang to not use the serif glyphs.
- Removed some bogus ligatures like “!!”, “??”, “...”, etc.
- Fixed the “short f” feature.
- Made the “bunny ears” glyphs with dieresis the alternate form, and made the
more conventional form the default.
- Dropped the “aalt” feature, since it is of limited use and hard to keep up to
date.
- Fixed diaeresis positioning in bold serif.
- Fixed the following upstream bugs:
