Hi All,<br>
<br>
Here comes the 2.92.0 release of Lohit Malayalam. We done number
of improvements and bug fixes over the earlier release [1]. I am
happy we able to resolve all reported bugs against alpha in 2.92.0
release. <br>
<br>
<b> Following are the highlights:</b><br>
<ul>
<li>We had around 9 below base glyphs not used in any lookup, we
removed those glyphs.</li>
<li>Using "copy reference" for glyphs instead of copying whole
glyph points in most of the places.</li>
<li>Sfd file size is now 384K, 2.91.0 release was 408K.</li>
<li>Renamed anchor point, it will help in long term for making
single Lohit font having all scripts.<br>
</li>
<li>Removed Samvruthokaram ligature.</li>
<li>Resolved 10 issues reported on github [2] :
#35,#36,#37,#38,.#39,#40.#41,#42,#43,#44.</li>
<li>More test cases in test file.<br>
</li>
<li>Auto test integrated with Makefile ($make test)</li>
</ul>
