No I'm not. I'm pursuing that as well. Right now I'm speaking as an
individual expert who has held a major role in all new font technology
developed in the past ten years that has gone into OFF/OpenType.

In that capacity, I have been expressing since June 21 concerns about the
way this adhoc group (dis-)functions, but my concerns have been outright
denied by Vlad. His denial by itself makes this group dysfunctional.  I'll
reply to David in detail in the coming days.
